It's not just new roads they include, although you'd be surprised at how many new roads there are across the whole of the UK in a year, let alone Europe as well.  It also includes changes to junctions, roundabouts, one-way systems, different speed limits etc.  So yeah, probably more significant than you might think.

Yup, Red is correct.

And you never notice the changes... you notice the absence of them much more - like when you get told to turn off onto a missing road or your car suddenly appears to drive across a field...

If you are a regular long distance traveller, I suggest you update your maps ASAP.... if you only ever drive to your local shop to buy 10 fags, probably not waste your time.

I installed today the Discover Media updtate.

After insert the the SD card in the slot 1, the system took 3 minutes to recognise the new update sd card, wich I find strange due to the fact that there are many people complainig that sometimes it may take 4 hours...

I check, and the current version installed is: SGO919866AB0051 ECE 2015/16.

I assume this is the last update released.

Could you be kind to confirm?

Thanks

On the Discovery Nav the update is complete once you have extracted the files to the SD card and inserted it in the car.

On the Nav Pro it then has to copy/decompress/bugger around with the files from the SD card and put them onto the SSD in the card. It can and does take several hours.

Just downloaded this today.
I extracted it to the hard drive of my computer.
Do you just copy the 19GB extracted folder to an SD Card and then put it in and go for a drive for a hour or so?
What format does the SD Card have to be? (doing this on a Mac)
Thanks
