Thank you for your email.

I can confirm that the update is not yet ready for your vehicle.

I have been informed that we are in the final stages and should have a release date by the end of this month.

I have you on a priority list so as soon as it comes available, I will be in contact with you.

We really do appreciate your assistance.

Thank you for contacting ŠKODA Australia.

I've been asked to contact them in May. That's when the "so called update" is expected to be released.

That's really annoying. They were able to do mine late 2016 (after 18 mths chasing up). Love to know what their issue is!!

HI all, anyone have anymore recent updates on this topic. My motor (MY15 VRS wagon) is due it 24month service next Monday (1 May) and hasn't had an update since new (still shows maps expired on the portal). Its currently running software 0371 with ROW2015 installed. Im hoping the dealership (Perth city Skoda) are going to be able to resolve/update it for me.

Hi all. I visited the portal, put in my VIN. Downloaded the file. Unzipped. Put onto a SD card, then into my Skoda Octavia RS and went into the system to update - nothing. Says it could not detect files. Does the SD card have to by formatted in a special way?

Theres more to it, than what i looks. But one thing is the system update thing isn't neccesarily the right option to get it to find them. Was there anything else on the SD card, it has to be in the root directory.

By way of an update, dealership were unable to update the maps. I did get a reply back from Skoda AU as well....

Thank you for your email.

Please accept our apologies for the delay in the MAP update. We can confirm that the update will be released to our dealer network by 31st May 2017.

We thank you for your patience while we attended to the release of this update.

I'll test them on the first week of June when i put my O3 in for a service.

I had confirmation from Skoda Australia "I have been advised that the map update should be available from next week."

Car is booked in for 60k service next Thursday and have asked to get the map updated, so lets see what happens

Anyone got the new update? I was at the dealership on Wednesday and despite checking in advance they still couldn't do it.

Any idea what it involves?
