Great amount of info here, thanks. I’m doing up a van into a camper and i got the thermo top v and it looks incredibly similar to the evo 5. You’ve saved me some money because I was going to buy a cheap evo to rob parts and service the thermo top v.👍🏾
Hello good evening!!! Very useful and illustrative video! One question: can a 2010 TT Evo be used in a 1995 Land Rover Discovery 1 300TDI? this vehicle does not have an ECU or software to control the functions of the heater.... I am about to buy a used TT Evo, it comes from a wrecked VW Transporter van.... is it possible to use the TT Evo in my Discovery 1? what connections should i make? from Patagonia... thank you very much!!!... Gabriel
Hello Gabriel, thank you and yes it can be fitted. I retrofitted one to my Freelander 2 and use it for camping and sometimes pre-warm the car. ua-cam.com/video/CZvmzCqt9d4/v-deo.html
@@germplus hello @germplus... thanks for the link to your video... it was very helpful... I'm going to start with the repair and start-up simulation of the heater, on a workbench and then install it permanently in my Discovery... thank you!!!
hello dear i have several webasto v,but i couldnt turn on,to work right.few time work then stop to work,i bought w-bus converter from ebay,but after watch your video i understand itsneed program to parking heater,can youhelp me to tel me what i need to do please many thanks
Hello Germplus! I watched your video, thank you very much! I do not speak English, I used sub-translation, but everything is clear enough, I liked your answers in the comments. I want to make a request, I saw that you still have some unused items from the purchased Webasto installation kit, could you sell me cheaply or give away the parts you don’t need? I am from Ukraine, near the front Kharkiv, now a refugee, I am in Lithuania, it became necessary to install a used Webasto on my car, but now it is difficult with money because of the war. I need wiring, hose, hose connectors, pump, everything that is not used by you. Sorry if I wrote or asked wrong!
Hello Sergey - Thank you for your kind words and I am happy you found the video helpful. I still have the parts ( new and some old additional parts ) except for the dosing fuel pump I gave away. If I can get your email address I will send them to you for free. YouTude doesn't allow sending personal information. You can find me in freel2.com forum ( Germplus1 )? Sorry about your situation glad you are safe.
@@germplus Hi there, looking for information on the plugs for the EVO. I have a 6 pin plug that matches and the water pump harness, just looking for the power connector
Hi, very informative video. I have an TT evo5 unit from a 2019 bmw, I noticed you mentioned you had a VW heater, what has to be done to retrofit a brand specific OEM evo unit into another vehicle? I presume you need to delete off the bmw canbus/ encryption or change it from canbus to the universal W bus? Is there something you can buy to do this? Thanks
Hello - what vehicle do you want to install the bow TTevo5 on? Did the vehicle previously have factory fitted TTevo5? if NO, then you will need this software ( wibutec-shop.com/Webasto-Zuheizer-Upgrade-Software-mit-Dongle-fuer-VW-Amarok-S1-S6-ab-ca-082016-bei-Aufruestung-zur-Standheizung )to change the can bus to universal.
@@germplus hi, it's an older e series bmw that won't communicate with newer can us protocol of the ttevo.. The ttevo came from a g series. I've talked to a few uk companies that sell kits, they both say its not possible to use an oem specific evo in an other vehicle, it can't be converted they say.. Could be sales talk! . They dont sell a universal ecu board either. There is a tt vevo for my car, it shares the same burner as the evo but with my older Cambus protocol, I may just go for that as it would work through my IHKA with coding, I just wanted the latest tt model. I did find a company in Hungary who sells evo boards converted to manual on/off for £170. I looked at the link you sent, says it's to activate aux heating on a vw amarok? Are you sure it's possible to change an oem board to a universal w bus with software only? I've never heard of this. There's the 5kw latest erbaspacher 3 d5e Cs water heater kit with a nice diagnostic controller/timer for £1200 and 3 years warranty.. Decisions decisions!

This is good information. thanks mate.

Well done on a great informative video.
I’m looking at doing the same
What website did you pick the Evo up from?
Hi, thank you. I bought it on ebay but if you're in the UK, this website seems to be decent www.melloronline.co.uk
Thank you will take a look.

1. Buy kkl USB webbasto interface with their software an make the OEM unit run with it in diagnosis mode.

You now know for sure that the BMW OEM unit is "w-bus" capable with original hardware
2. 60€ little box called "w bus emulator" will run your OEM unit in any car for a fixed time by a switch or a remote receiver from eBay/aliexpress
We want a video on how to connect the webasto outside the car.
I also made the mistake for buying the thermo top evo do you know if anyone can give away the coding on the cd without paying for it lol 😂
Sorry about that 😂. My mate said I should tell you there are companies online who remove the one time use only restrictions on softwares. 😉
@@germplus help a guy out dude ;)
No you need w bus capable heater
No unlock can bus unit will work as of now without the car and the can messages constant coming in :-)
This guy doesn’t know what he’s talking about
