Does v32 have language option?

I've been told that v32 for the Mk4 has a "camera warning" option that replaced the "language" option. Is that true?

There is NO option to change the language????

Thanks
Jim

I have no idea what that might be. The MKIV can store three language options-- same with V32 and every prior OS version I am familiar with. I do not know what a "camera warning" option might be.

From what someone told me the camera option either turns ON or OFF the speed camera warning option. What I'n guessing is the map data base has the positions of permanently stationed radar speeding camera traps on the highways. When you are about to drive by one the nav system warns you.

But what i was told was that this option was put into v32 and the language option was removed.

That is what I'm trying to confirm, if the language option has been removed or not fromv32.

It's a nav-hack

OEM software has no speed camera warning capabilities

It's not an OEM feature.

That's my custom v32 mate and yes the language option is modded to have the on/off.

Like so

Yes, the original, OE, non-hacked version of every MKIV OS has the option to select from three languages.

You bought a hacked/modified OS version, where the FR language was overwritten with EN.

You could make your own FR OS version by replacing both EN and the modified FR with FR languages.
