    Saw a post on Audiworld earlier that they are now available. It seems they are not yet available to download directly from the car but you can do it via myAudi / SD Card.

    Just updated and can see new roads that were not available previously.

    Thanks srbsq7!

    I downloaded it and realised that it does not fit 16Gb SD card, thus I have to buy a 32Gb card. Just coulpe of questions on loading it to the car:

    1, Has to be one sitting or if I switch off the car and on again, the map refresh loading will continue?
    2, Loading is done in the background? I.e. I can drive and listen to music while it is loading the map refresh?

    Hi anemeth,

    Were you downloading all the maps possible then? I only updated the region containing England (UK and Iceland I think ) and didn't realise it was that big? I was using a 32gb card but it didn't take long to download and when I've looked over the wire downloads in the car, England south was only about 1gb.

    1) pretty sure if you start it off and then start driving it will continue in the background. I do know if you do it over the wire, it will pick up where you left off if you stop before it's completed.

    2) pretty sure it doesn't affect music via either method. I don't recall it rebooting the MMI either.

    Thanks.

    In Hungary you get two options on MyAudi: Full Europe map or some regional maps (like Germany, Germany+Benelux, etc.). As no reqional map option contains Hungary map, I had to download full Europe map update. The full Europe map update is 15.1Gb. I just ordered 32Gb card from China.

    Once it starts updating you can turn off the car and it still continues. When it's done or when you start the Q after it is, it'll tell you it's been updated on the pop up navigation screen.

    Ok so..

    @srbsq7 / @anemeth @Anyone ...

    My noggin is obviously overlooking something at the moment?? - I select map update I want click prepare and get prompted to save these files.. I've added the GB_ & Whole_ bits to the original file download names though..

    map file sizes.PNG


    Both downloads whether whole or part for GB are 8KB?? when I click the prepare button to update them..


    map file GB.jpgmap file prep complete.jpg


    Should I probably wait till they can updated from the vehicle or something?, I was updating my music libary so thought I'd do the maps .. but getting nowhere near the 1gb or 16gb+ size of the map update mentioned here?


    I'll try IE explorer possibly :-0

    Thanks for sharing update in any case..

    8kB is defenetly wrong for the map, the file you downloaded is JNPL file type. You should run the file (hopefully your Java is uptodate on your PC). When you run the file a Java applicaton should come up called Audi Connect Download. This will ask you where (which directory) to download the map to. After you tell it, than it will start the download.
