I have just updated to 942 but now can't get the green menu to open, do I need to re enable it via VCDS after an update?

yes every firmware update seems to disable the green menu again and possibly some other coding that you may have done with vcds. Where did you get the 942 firmware from?

Just bought the latest maps and software from a vag specialist for £150. Its for the wife's A5 as it hasn't had maps or software for 5 years so won't find or show roads that have been there for years

Thanks

I bought a card off eBay.

Worked perfectly.

I got them from Audi Updates sat nav maps dvd sd card 2017 firmware activation 3 SD cards. Software, European mapping and the licences.

If you email them they may offer the same deal I got which is £50 less than their website.

I haven't yet tried to install it, that's a job for this weekend.

M1tchy. Any luck with the install.

Yes mate, did it today. Left the car running and blocked it in with my kit car while I worked on it.

Took a while but now has the latest software and 2016 maps. It now finds postcodes it didn't previously and also a certain road that was built before we took delivery now shows up too.

This was for the Wife's A5 by the way.

2016? Not 2017? Did it come with good instructions or would I have to be a tech wiz to do it.
