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,

          Having real trouble loading this update on to a 32 GB SD card. I run Macs and try as I might it refuses to load. Something to with the way the file packed. Is there a step by step procedure for us on the dark side. ( Mac users).

            There's instructions on the VW page

            "We recommend OSX users use "keka" unzipping programme and "CleanMyDrive" to remove any hidden files because OSX adds hidden files

              To put it mildly Macs are crap at unzipping stuff As above use what it says or on the VW page for "Mac" users and it might work

                This worked for me, see how you go
                Current:
                2017 Mk2 Tiguan 162TSI, R-line, White
                2020 Mk7.5 Golf R Wagon, White

                    Tried this all morning! Downloaded keka and already had Clean my Drive. Unpacked the .7z file in keka and loaded it on to my 32GB SD card. Cleaned the file which removed “junk” and put the SD card in to my infotainment slot 1. I accessed the system and hit the update. It said looking for update files, then gave me a error message. Tried three time, no joy. I then deleted the SD card and unpacked the file using keka on my desktop. Loaded it on to me SD card and cleaned it. Tried to put in to the infotainment system, more error messages.
                    The main file name reads - P90_N60S...3_ROW_NT and within that file are Mib1, Mib2. There are loads of country maps within those two files and presumably you have to load all of them. Or does the system just take what it needs for Australia? Anyway I have lost the will to live! HELP!!!

                      Ah the joys of being on the dark side Us normal people end up with

                      MIB 1

                      MIB 2

                      Metaininfo2.txt

                      Put it in car and wait about 30 secs and it should find it.

                      Take the file to a friend with a real computer and unzip it on that.

                      Yes it loads all the maps as it is REST OF WORLD after all and picks the correct one for where the vehicle is located and is the MMI variation installed in the car

                      You should not alter the files in nay way as they wont work then.

                      I use WIN RAR without problems on a PC

                      What is your desktop Is it a Mac also as if its a PC you would use Winzip It works ok I d/loaded the VW one last night and un RAR'd it to an Sd card and its fine

                          Thanks Hillbilly, I see Mib1, Mib2 and metainfo2.txt

                          I will try again with a PC - my son has a laptop which I can use.

                          Thanks again.

                              I understand the issue. If you select a 2020 Tiguan Australia does not come up under Discover Pro but if you choose a 2019 Tiguan as the vehicle Australia appears for Discover Pro. All good, thanks mate.
