Sat Nav Sd Cards

[Ryan_R]

I don't think the SUNA license will be found in VCDS - I'd expect it to be a part of the map disc/SD card.

Also when reading through the other thread it sounded more like a sarcastic joke that VW would unwittingly remove the Traffic feature when in for a service, yet others are taking this as a factual experience.

Could it have something to do with the version of maps on the SD card? Mine came with V2

The traffic works on my GTI, December build, I don't see how they could just turn it off at a service consumer affairs might have something to say about removing features from a car someone already owns.

I think the updates end up wiping the key and the dealers don't know any better.

If there are any Brisbane Mk7 owners with functioning traffic let me know, I would like to look at the settings via VCDS. That way when people lose it they can just put it back on.

Looking at the information providers website (click link below) I doubt VW would try to charge extra for this...

I have read somewhere that if you have traffic working, it is likely to stop working when the car is first serviced and the software gets updated. This seems to mean you need to enjoy it while you can. However, somebody with VCDS may be able to see how to reactivate traffic if you let them have a look before it gets deactivated.

Any views on this?

Seems kinda silly...I mean the whole Discover system isn't that fantastic + they already deprived us of having the option of the Pro. Don't see why they keep taking features away for no apparent reason.

As promised...a video tour of the traffic working on the Mk 7 Golf R

[armthehomeless]

I'll take some pics or videos of it working tonight.

I'll also see if I can remember how I enabled it.

I just found the reference to Traffic being disabled on service. Have a look at pages 3 and 4 of this forum/thread.

I only read:

Which means that if you have it, you can expect it to be disabled by VW during your next service.

I'm still hoping it doesn't!

There's a new update on the discover media, I got mine updated upon delivery and the traffic func didn't work from the start. I think they're gonna reintroduce it at a later date with a wee bit of $$$

I can confirm I have traffic reports on mine as well.

Go into radio settings and enable it and RDS. That's all I did

I'd be very interested in scanning your car with my VCDS cable once I get my Octavia!
