Sounds like you will need help from your OH, as well as the laptop! Don’t worry, it’s all basic computer stuff. 😁

You're not wrong! I've googled it now and feel better prepared. The tricky bit remains though, persuading her to loosen her grip on her laptop :rolleyes:

I’m an IT Professional - but I haven’t tackled a Nav upgrade yet. To be honest I may not bother if it’s going to be just like the day job (ie constant agro and hassle).  I much prefer using Waze anyway. Just a shame it can’t use the Active Info Display.

It's an easy process, download, unzip and move to memory card. A bit of patience and decent internet connection help but I've never had any issues what so ever. Anyone who has had issues hasn't followed the instructions correctly.

I shall be giving it a go this week, I hope you're right :smiley: Mind you, it can't be harder than changing the headlight bulbs :rolleyes:

Even the sat nav should be easier than doing headlights  :grin:

Could one of you tech savvy members help me out with a couple of questions please before I mess up my nav update? :smiley:

I want to be sure I'm looking at the correct system in my car, the options for the car are 'until 2015' or 'from 2015'. Mine is a May 2015 car and the unit looks like the one in the 'until 2015' but it makes more sense that it should be the 'from 2015'. So which one is it? Hopefully the 'until' as they have been recently updated.

Then the instructions say it could take several hours to download, is that right? I've got reasonably fast fibre broadband, will it really take that long? And if it does, can you just leave it to it as I think I'd rather get lost than sit by the computer for that long!

Thanks :smiley:

Yeah start the download, go away, have a cuppa... and another cuppa, pop out, get some shopping, walk the dog, watch something on TV, go to bed, get up and then repeat while it unzips and writes to the memory card/stick.

It takes ages.
