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,

            Hi all, newbie Brad here from Sydney. Recently bought a Skoda Octavia Scout Premium 132TSI MY16, which I am loving so far. However I seem to have fallen foul of the Bermuda triangle that is how to update the maps (current version is 2019/20). I successfully downloaded the 2020/21 version to my Mac via the update portal, using the VIN number. There was no Skoda SD card that came with the car, so I formatted (ExFat) a 32GB Sandisk SD card and inserted into the SD slot as per the "It is easy" video on the update portal page. The system recognised the card, but refused to update (got an error message to check the source etc.). I then tried a Samsung USB drive (ExFat); got very excited when the system recognised the drive with a "System update" message. This is it I thought...but no. Same deal, system attempts to update then I get the same error message. Any suggestions gratefully received!

              Use a PC Macs stuff up the way it is written on the card and thats your problem

                  Thanks Hillbilly, I did wonder if it was a Mac/PC thing. Sadly we're an all-Mac household, might have to press the neighbours into service...

                      Thanks for the unzipper tip, I tried again using WinZip for Mac and that did the job.

                      Not leaving the Dark Side just yet ha ha...

                        Hi

                        I have a 2018 Superb with the Columbus.

                        When I enter my VIN into the portal it says there are no updates. Should I at least see 2021 map?

                        thanks

                          Looks like the system is down ATM, I just tried a couple of VINs with the same result.
