New may 2015 Navigation Map updates available

[p3asa]

Its recommended to use 7 zip file manager.
unzip with that and then copy to your SD card.
You don't have to go for an hours drive as its safe to be interrupted.
Mines updated completely on my 15 minute drive to work.

Thanks for that.
It seems to have extracted ok to a new folder so will copy that across and see if it will update.

The nav in my soon to be replaced Touareg tells you the distance to the next service station in the dis, the nav itself is a bit poor but because of the size of the dial display it has quite a bit of info, is it possible to get this info on the mk7 Golf at all?

[p3asa]

Is that when you have selected a route to take?
I'm sure in the Golf if POI are selected then this info is displayed.

Yes only if you're en-route and on a motorway, i don't remember seeing it in the Golf system, i'll have a look when it turns up, do i need to load the POI's on or are service stations already in the database?

[fredgroves]

Some petrol stations are in the POI.

Unfortunately the map database people are gits and only choose to list the companies who pay to be in the database... so you won't see every possibility.

Arghh, I hate computers.
Spend all day trying to get this update on the car.
Seemingly I extracted the first time using the Unarchiver, which won't work, tried StuffIt and that didn't play either.
Tried another one now.
Have 3 folders in the unzipped folder, do I have to copy the folder P123_N60S5MIBH3_EU_NT, or all 3 individually from that folder, Eggnog, NavDB and SpeechResVDE to the SD Card.

Thanks

[p3asa]

Once you have extracted the files just copy them as they are over to the SD card, folder structure and all.

[GerryD]

Copied the 3 files and for whatever reason it accepted it.
All updated now, took about 40 mins or so to copy.
Now reading 2015/16 in system info.

Don't know about Pro Nav but with the basic Nav you can have it display POIs like service stations etc but it wont give you any detailed information like that.
