Maps and POIs for Discover Media

[Eaglehawk]

Also, if you format, choose the smallest cluster size...

I use DiscoverCare to update my maps. DiscoverCare < Innovation & Technology < Volkswagen International

Maps you want to select is "Multi Region Map 2".

Pretty straight forward. Am I missing something as to the all the fuss about getting dealers to update etc?

(Downloading new version now too)

Hi

just wanted to clarify.....
i'm on the v1 & have downloaded the MIB1 firmware- however this is just 347MB download. after popping it on the sd card, it gives me - "navigation data in the infotainment systems is not valid" message. Could you confirm if i need other countries too?

i.e.; i download the 25 files & then overwrite the aus folder with this download? is this the procedure?
I'm on an 5G0919866A 0022 ROW 2013

regrets on sounding like a noob.

Guys, do you know if any maps are available for Chile? My MIB2 didn't came with any map or sdcard. Some of these vehicles were destinated to Canada but instead they were sent to Chile (TDIs)

You need to use the original SD card. Your wasting your money getting a new card as it won't be recognised by the unit.

Use Windows for this process .... Mac OSX never works for me and of course you need a card reader.

Download the maps & extract them into a folder on your Windows desktop using the recommended archiving application.

Once that is done, go into say the India folder & remove just one file (make it a large one) & that will save the space you need. DO NOT delete the whole India folder or it will affect the display of your route marker signs when you use the map i.e. you will see the 'green sign but it will not contain the route number e.g. M1 or A32, etc.

Quick format the SD card as FAT32.

Copy the contents of from the folder on your Windows desktop straight onto the SD card.

Eject the card & that is it. Well that's what works for me anyway.

After trying a new SD card before reading this thread, and using the OSX Discoverware app failing without actually specifying why (probably space again), this was the general process that worked for me. I only have an SD card reader on my Macbook though, so I had to remove the files on a windows desktop and then just copy over the network on to the empty VW card.

Got there in the end though

Is it me, or have navigation.com now removed the downloads from their website? I get to this page, and it says to visit your VW dealer, you get it free now with every service...

Yeah, maybe. I've had free maps on my Tig and Golf at both of their last services, so Pathans VW has seen the light at last (on this topic at least).

Once you locate the Volkswagen page find your head unit and click on it, took me directly to download page for May 2017 release (MIB 2).

For the people who've updated, is it worth it?

Also does anyone have a copy of the 7ZIP that they could sent me via PM. I'm in work so cant download the software.
