OK thanks

32GB SD card was going to be my next hurdle

I tried a USB flash drive for the hell of it and it worked

Note I have the new version discover pro.

New as in the nice looking one?
Mine looks like a Gen 1 (on the VW website) , but documentation suggests it's a Gen 2

Oh well, I'll just suck it and see

Wrong tread...

I managed after some trial and error to get the updates done.
Thanks for everyone's links and comments.
I loaded P68_N60S5MIBH3_ROW_NT_v2.7 to a USB and then used the 'Update' function after holding down the Menu button.

I gave up on the app as it gave me the same error. A bit further down the download page is the full data file download for ‘non-European countries’.
I unzipped all the files into the root of a 32GB USB flash drive formatted as EXFAT - no SD card required.
Note if you are using a Mac, the instructions recommend you use Keka to unzip reliably (AU$2.99 from Mac app store), and CleanMyDrive 2 to remove hidden Mac system files that confuse the head unit (Free from Mac app store). I used both to be on the safe side.

Thanks for this. Tired it yesterday and worked a treat! Saved me $453 which was quoted by my VW dealership.

You’re kidding!? $453? What else were they doing?
Glad we could help.

At that price my 15k service was cheaper.

Thanks for posting up the pictures of the version info. Look forward to getting mine updated.

What are the noticable changes to the maps?
