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,

I doubt the dealer will be proactive enough to do them...?

For the european version I can download everything from navigation.com
HERE navigation - Volkswagen Region Selector.

Thanks, yeah I think I found that navigation site in my searching, which unfortunately just sends you to the vw website in Australia to ‘find a dealer’.
And yeah, no wifi update option available... USB or sd only

Firmware updates are only from the dealer at this stage and will require a support bulletin before they'll apply it.
The only exception to this is version 252 which is available.
Versions are different for different part number mib units, where the first digit denotes applies to the pn which it is made for.
I've seen 2xx, 3xx, 6xx and 8xx there are probably different versions again for North America

I can't get the VW software (Mac version) to give me any map options
When I fire it up it says "Connection to the update server is currently impossible. Please check your internet connectivity"
yeah - same internet that I downloaded this piece of rubbish software on so, yea, connectivity fine
I select Discover Pro (Gen 1) but have no option to select model/year of car. It tells me there are no updates but I assume that's because it can't access the update serverMY17 Volkswagen Tiguan 162TSI Highline, DAP, Sunroof, Caribbean Blue

Volkswagen Maps & Software Updates
I gave up on the app as it gave me the same error. A bit further down the download page is the full data file download for ‘non-European countries’.
I unzipped all the files into the root of a 32GB USB flash drive formatted as EXFAT - no SD card required.
Note if you are using a Mac, the instructions recommend you use Keka to unzip reliably (AU$2.99 from Mac app store), and CleanMyDrive 2 to remove hidden Mac system files that confuse the head unit (Free from Mac app store). I used both to be on the safe side.Tiguan Highline 162TSI | Indium Grey | DAP | MY18

Note I have the new version discover pro.
Mine looks like a Gen 1 (on the VW website) , but documentation suggests it's a Gen 2
Oh well, I'll just suck it and seeMY17 Volkswagen Tiguan 162TSI Highline, DAP, Sunroof, Caribbean Blue
