New Nav map available in Skoda update portal

[Hillbilly]

I'll go out on a limb a little here and wonder if the issue is the SD card itself. Most people use 32gb ones, class 10, SDHC - it may just be that your card is too big and new to be handled by the system. And I think XC needs to be formatted in a slightly different way which would cause the SD card reader in the car to have issues. I'd suggest you get a SD card that is 32gb, class 10, and try that. My newly purchased 2016 VRS, as I found out, has never been to a Skoda dealer since delivery (not for warranty or servicing or anything). So when I checked it was running the original firmware 0318 and original maps 2016.

With no issue at all, I easily updated it to 2021 maps, then a week or so later when I had time, I updated the firmware from 0318 to 1433, the best available, again using the same card without any issue.

I'd suggest trying this.

What unit is it you have as Rednuts looks like a Discover MEDIA NOT a PRO

Does it come with is own VW supplied SD Card and if so Its NOT a pro and uses a 4gb map and MUST use its own card.


Where did you get the firmware from as have never seen any updates sine the old RNS510

Read the last two pages if this thread It seems you have a Discover MEDIA and so need the 4GB map HE has the same trouble as you and wrong assumption of model of unit


Maps update

naturally all my peripherals are either 64gb or higher and 16gb or lower. neither the sdcard or usb drive worked with multiple formats and data sources. i'll try source an old 32gb drive to test with. thanks for the help.

You can use any size SD card Ive got the map on a 128gb micro card and it works

I think you are using the wrong map

Another forum - took a while to download as it was one of those free hosting where they always want you to upgrade to get faster speeds, but I have it. I cannot recall the forum (maybe Briskoda) but in reading everything, it showed that the most stable and latest version was 1433 - so that is what I downloaded and unzipped. It came as a pack - it was 1433, 1382, 1240 and 1440, but apparently 1440 can have issues on older units whereas 1433 appears to be fine with all ages. Given mine was 2016, I went for 1433 and it worked a treat.

Given I was on 0318, there was lots to do. One example is the old f/w version did not show speed limits in the maps, even with the latest maps. Once I updated it did.
