It probably needs to be formatted in Fat32 rather than exFat that it will have been formatted in.

Right guys.  I stayed up til 3.30 in morning,  finally got my sd card formatted to Fat32,  jumped in car and put sd card in 'unable to read sd card' I feel helpless and tired   :sad: why won't it play? 64gb micro sd card with adapter

I used EASEus to format to FAT32
 Please help if you've had the same problem.

Thanks for your precious time guys (would really appreciate it)

Regards

Maybe something to do with the adaptor!?!
I'm sure I had something similar in the Mk6. The card with adaptor worked fine in the PC but in the RNS it couldn't be read.

64gb micro sd card with adapter

There you go, that's your problem. As far as I know, it states in the manual to only use SD/SDHC not microsd with adapter.

I've got a 32GB SDHC Class 10 and works a treat.

My bets are on it will only allow up to 32GB's like the Audi's  :whistle:
