New Nav map available in Skoda update portal

[manamp27]

A new map is available in the portal called MRM 2016/2017. The last version released in Nov 2015 was called ROW 2016, the ROW meaning 'rest of world'. Anyone know what MRM refers to and whether that applies to Australia?

Good find. It looks like it could be the right one. When I go to the portal a message says next update is in June 2016. I entered my VIN and it came up with MRM 2016/2017. Last week I installed ROW 2016 as our new car came with ROW 2015/2016. Now for another big download.

I still want to know what MRM denotes before installing. I know it's unlikely, but I don't want to risk inadvertently installing a map that isn't for Australia.

If your Passat has a RNS510 in it this map wont be for yours You can buy a new V9 map off JKU for $199 Copies or links to arent allowed on here. Has been out since April 25th.

The install went smoothly. None the wiser why it has MRM instead of the previous ROW prefix on the download.

I will post how the install goes after downlading is complete.

My Octavia never came with the SD for the map, do you need that to be able to update the maps?

I believe so. Best way to determine is to head to the Skoda update portal and enter your VIN. Then you can determine whether your car qualifies for updates - seems to be a bit hit and miss with some cars not eligible.

Hello, I am also trying to update the maps in my 2015 Octavia Scout. The Skoda update portal says I can download ROW2104, but the car already has ROW2015!! Do you have any clues where I can get the MRM2016/2017 mentioned above? Regards.
