    Hi all.
    I wonder if anyone else has had the following anomaly on their A6 C7 Google Earth sat nav?
    Every morning around 7:30 whilst driving, my screen and DIS are covered in green lines, as shown in the images. The car is booked in soon under warranty, hopefully for a software update (if it’s available).
    Any thoughts as to what’s going on?

    It does, but then it goes back to normal. Only ever happens between 7-8am each day and only ever on Google Earth nav. When that’s switched off, it’s absolutely fine

    I have seen similar when the SIM card is out of data, switch off Google maps or replace the SIM and hey presto, normal service resumed.

    Thanks for that. There’s plenty of data left on the SIM card, but I might try swapping it out.
    It’s bizarre, as it only happens each morning

    Your car is in the mood for playing some TRON only early morning?

    Update: Car taken to Lincoln Audi this morning and they had ‘never seen anything like this before’. Software update applied, so I’ll see how it goes from now.
    On the plus side, I got a new Q2 SLine to try out!

    Good luck with the update. My wife loves her new Q2, what did you think?

    Also I used to live in Lincoln many moons ago, is that Damon's in the background as I recall it being near to Lincoln Audi?

    You’re right, I can pretty much reach out and touch Damon’s from here!
    The Q2 was lovely, but not quite big enough for my needs. I had the 2.0 TDI Quattro that had a nice bit of grunt to it. Fortunately, it’s Google maps didn’t mess up like mine!
