Did you use the VW program or just downloaded it yourself?

I downloaded the update off the VW website and it used ‘discover care’ to transfer it. All went fine until this

Is that with the original VW supplied card in? I think you've downloaded the pro version of maps by the looks of it.

The error refers to backing up data. Isn't that it trying to store the existing content before copying the new?

One of the reasons I just download direct. The Discover Care thing is useless. Are you supposed to save the existing data from the card before using Discover Care JV?

Cheers lads I’ll have a look again at it. The card is the one that came with the car.

Just a guess based on the alert, could be referring to a chosen backup location not having space, nothing to do with the SD card. I haven't got a card based nav to be able to check, so can't get to those screens in the tool.

Appreciate you have said a thousand times that you don't like the VW software but it has worked perfectly for me. It's so easy to use, it filters the options based on your car model, tells you about the file format required etc. Easy.

it's not me having the bother JV but I've always just used the direct method. I know others like the Discover Care thing 👍
