Sounds like you've downloaded nav pro maps which are bigger than discover nav. Nav pro maps are about 26-27gb and discover nav is only 14-15 gb.

Go to the top of the class mcmaddy, I made an error... Now sorted, many thanks.  :smiley:

Have they changed the website? I could not find the map mentioned on the first post.

I had MP163. After a lot of playing about, I now have - 5NA919866R 1115 ECE AS 19/20 :huh:

The VW Discovercare application kept giving check sum errors. Tried automatic and also selecting the second map with the UK in it. Also tried a laptop and a desktop PC. None of this worked.

Eventually downloaded the file from the link below and the zip program from the bottom of that webpage. Unzipped the 'maps'. Moved the 'maps' off the SD card. Then copied the new 'maps' on.

Appears to be working ok.

What a pain in the...

This is the link I used - https://webspecial.volkswagen.de/vwinfotainment/int/en/index/downloads/maps-download#/?car=eae8e75f-2cdf-455e-8f82-8aba0846573e&navi=f7d60bb5-e4c7-4f15-a629-ed994e464a9f

This is the file I used for my standard Mk7.5 system - http://vw-mapscdn.tdd.adacorcdn.com/DiscoverMedia2_EU_AS_1115_V10.7z

You may want to wait until someone else verifies this works. Took ages even with my new BT fibre broadband.

Yeah its a massive pain in the bum every time... and I'm pretty tech savvy.

I guess making an easy reliable mechanism for getting these out there doesn't sell more VW, so they don't bother.

Actually to be honest, anything software related is a clunky nasty nightmare from VW. I suppose computer stuff is the poor relation in a mechanical engineering shop...

The discover care application is totally useless. I only ever use the VW.de navigation site. Never had that many issues with updating the maps and it's a simple process. It's a bit time consuming sometimes.
