I heard Jay What'sHisName talking about V3 maps (and features about motorway speed limits being shown on the screen) in a video on his Ask-a-VW-Sales-guy channel. This led me to belive that V3 was already available... maybe not in Australia yet. Or maybe I'm confusing map data and firmware.

I asked the dealer about V3 maps and got a reply saying that the maps are still under trial and have not been released and that ifits not released by the time i get the car (which is now saturday!) then the only way i will get a free upgrade is if the RNS fails and they have to reload maps..:|

I would really only "need" the nav-assitstance (currently using a street dirctory) probably 3-4 times a year so I see no point in having to shell out 1k per year to upgrade the maps.

surely there are other means of obtaining the new maps?? 1200 is out of the question. If it was 200 then ok i could justify it!2010 5 DR MK6 GTI|DSG|CARBON STEEL|18" DETROIT|ACC|BI-XENON|LEATHER|SUNROOF|DYNAUDIO|SATNAV|MDI|PREMIUM BT|TINTS|EXTENDED WARRANTY| In garage

After getting no where with my local dealer and VW Australia regarding SDHC problems and the Version 2 map I have lodged a complaint with NSW Fair Trading: Homepage
It's easy to to do, and perhaps if enough of us complain VW will do something...

Finally VW service guy called me in today to get my V3 map updated...so happy after 4 long months wait...
It did fixed my annoying message from before which was "No Route Recommendations for this Destination".
Best thing was it was done for FREE but he wouldn't give me the V3 DVD...2010 Mountain Grey Auto 2.0TSI.
