    Anyone else got a problem with google maps since the weekend (first noticed on Sunday)? All other connect services and traffic are still working fine but not the g maps. I get a message that google earth is restarting, but it doesn't.....I then get option to use standard maps while waiting. Any ideas?

    I have the same problem started on Saturday, Google Eart seems to start then A couple of seconds later says it is restarting and whether you want to use standard maps if you say no you see a picture of of the world with the Audi rings with the screen saying loading please wait. I did a search online and noted some guys in the USA having the same issue apparently it has to do with an update that is being done on Audi Connect that should be sorted soon. Surprised no one mentioned it over the weekend had me worried unit I saw other folks are having the same issue.

    I have had the same, followed tonight by an email from BT stating that my car sim (which I only use for google maps) has used £80 of data in 24 hours compared with never going over the £5 minimum for three years, it has managed to use that £80 during a round trip of 40 miles on an existing route with google maps saying it was doing something. I use my Iphond for all voice calls and any hot spot requirements. Cue claim to Audi tomorrow.

    I was playing with the view at the start of a 5 hour journey, and thought that it was only reloading Google Maps because I had switched to the Traffic view. It's not an area with much 3G coverage so I reverted to the Traffic view. I did try again later on in the journey when I got bored but the download had only got as far as "Goog" when I got to my destination and had used a few GB. My data's unlimited 3G so it's only time that's the constraint assuming I can get a 3G signal. I'll try again at the weekend.

    Same problem here... I though it may be a problem with my system but it's seems that its more of a universal problem. Hope they get it sorted soon.

    Yes, was about to post this. Stopped Saturday PM.
    I've been trying to switch back to Gmaps once a day since, to no avail.

    Would be interested to find out what happens with the claim for large amount of data downloaded.

    They will probably tell you to **** off.
    Something along the lines of it’s a third party system and the data use can be anything from your hotspot to using the Audi connect features.
    I only have a gb per month so if it burns that it’s all I pay as I set a cap of zero if it goes over.

    Same problem here, seems to be a global failure in the internal Audi-Google interface.
