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 gents, apologies if this has been explained already, but do we have a log list of changes/updates in SW versions? I am IT person myself, and know that updating can bring some cool features or fix bugs, but what is the difference between 2009 SW version and latest available (assume 523x). What extras does it give?
Also, on side note, my Premium provision system works fine with Samsung phones, BUT!! it works only with Vodafone here in NZ, and does not work with Spark. I wonder if this is software or hardware limitations... anyone knows?
I tried to ask dealers but they are clueless, as expected.
Thank you

There is no REAL changelog as a lot of the mentioned changes are cumulative since first release.
Can you be more specific about the functionality and problem with different carriers? Is there a service difference with the carriers?2011 Skoda Octavia vRS TDI DSG wagon|Revo Stage 1|Race Blue|Leather|Dynamic Xenons w 6000K|9w7 BT|THA475 Amp+active sub|Whiteline ALK|RVC|

even though it says 2014 on the site, they replied to me that they have latest 2015 map for same price. Dealer confirmed that 2015 is latest they have and they can install it for $50 [no disc]

It isnt legal at all No matter who has the disc it is only supposed to be installed in one vehicle and you should get the disk, especially if you pay for it.
Some salesmen will do it for you and I had it done once when a new map came out shortly after I bought the car. I was told by the guy not to let the boss see me doing it. No different to you buying one and copying it for all your mates or giving them yours to use.Last edited by Guest001; 07-06-2016, 06:07 PM.2021 Kamiq LE 110 , Moon White, BV cameras F & B

Is it even possible to reinstall the older version that originally came with your car (presuming you even got it in the first place) over the top of a newer version?
It is the same as with music You may legally copy a DVD for your own use as long as you have the original. See here
It's now legal to rip CDs and DVDs for personal use | TechRadar
In fact you cannot reinstall a map over itself I tried when people were having problems with streets not showing up in V6. I found I had to install V5 over it and then reinstall V6 over that.
A dealer who is charging $50 to install HIS map on your unit is simply ripping you off if he doesnt give you the disk as well.
He could make $500 out of that disk in a very short time and Im sure VW would dissaprove big time.
They have fixed it in other makes as the map version in a Mazda is linked to the car and you cant copy the SD card or put it in another car as it wont run without the card.
I think the Touareg is similar.
I found out about the Mazda the hard way when a friend asked me to register and update his SD card and me like a fool formatted it first.
Big mistake cost me $245 for a new oneLast edited by Guest001; 07-06-2016, 07:31 PM.2021 Kamiq LE 110 , Moon White, BV cameras F & B
