Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Octavia 1Z + Columbus rtn from UK

    Hey all,
    Haven't been on for a while. Moved to the UK in 2015 and brought the car with us. Bought Western Europe maps on DVD cheap when we got here, like £30 for the latest at the time, works perfectly....however.......We're about to head back to Sydney, shipping the car in 2 weeks and had a look for a map update to switch back to Australian maps.... Holy 5h1t!!
    Has anyone got some advise on the best way to go about it? The cheapest I can see for the latest version is $550 which is crazy! I'd be tempted to swap out for an Android head unit before doing that to be honest. Would prefer to keep the factory look though.

    Details: Octavia 1Z MY11, Columbus RNS510

    Any help/advise on the path to take would be appreciated.
    Ben

      Thanks donweather, that's one better option indeed. I've also just found another mob that have various offerings down to $10 for V7 2014:

      Can't believe the cost of the latest maps
