No, Volkswagen call this a Discover Media, the next one up is a Discover Pro Media. Come on Hillbilly, you should know - you don't have the Czech chariot yet.

Interesting...I decided to start from scratch on Saturday morning - reformatted the USB drive, extracted the map update package to it, plugged the drive in to the car and just left it alone. Version 20.3 at the start.

This morning when I arrived at work I decided to check the version information. 21.2.

I am dropping the car at the dealership this morning to have the tint on the front left window replaced - there appears to be a minor flaw in the film - but at least now I don't have to worry about trying to get them to do the system software update.

It doesnt update the system software. It only updates the MAP

I know. I never said that the USB method did update the system software. System software is a dealer-only exercise, which was also undertaken on my vehicle - I am now running 0278.

I took this to mean that you thought it had

"but at least now I don't have to worry about trying to get them to do the system software update".

No, that was in relation to being able to actually perform the map update via USB. There is history of system version 0270 being unable to receive map updates via USB, but an update to system software version 0278 is acknowledged as resolving that issue.

I was 'fortunate' in that when my vehicle was at the dealership on that day, they decided to update the system software to v 0278 anyway.
