Well, you don't have to worry anymore as you've downloaded the last & latest update. VW have dropped support for map updates on MIB1

I've only seen the message "no playable files" when playing around with music files. People have run into problems using a Mac as it adds extra files. Can you use a PC?. Will give you far less problems. I use to format, but now just erase the old files Your car is the same age as mine, and putting in my VIN the latest available maps are ECE 2020/2021 This will be the last update as VW have stopped support for MIB1

Rear Light Damage - Advice Please
Sure I read somewhere that in the tool kit, the Allen key is for removing the torx screws holding the light cluster in place and that the metal hook in the the tool kit can be used for removing the trim to get to the torx screws. I stand to be corrected.

Octavia Scout 68-reg 181PS engine idle speed too fast?
I understand what you're saying, I have the same experience with the lurching The idle speed is normal at around 750 with it in gear and brakes on. As soon as I release the brakes, the idle goes up to 1000 and the car moves off smoothly and likewise coming to a stop, all very smooth. If you're having this problem in start/stop traffic then maybe there is a problem. The "lurching" is caused by the brakes going on and off and revs going up and down as you try to drive slowly into a small space.. Annoying, but for me it's only when I'm putting it into my very narrow garage that it happens. Does your Audi have a different spec gearbox which you're comparing it with?

Noise While Braking
Sod's law it will be the wheel you haven't checked. Sounds often come from where you don't expect.

What does it all mean? Electrics and steering pull and alignment…
We've all given our opinions, but until the OP replies with exactly what happened & where the damage was no more can be done.

My take on this. Even if you do not use the ACC, if it was faulty you would have had an error warning on the dash. Did you? Is it possible that the wheel got hit in the incident? If not, and the alignment "was massively out" I think you would have felt the car pulling to one side & have uneven wear on the tyres.

Stop-Start and Turbo oil cooling
If it was a problem I'm sure there would have been many threads about turbo failures. Same as the start/stop system, some people won't use it because of the supposedly extra wear and tear on the system. I'll bet the majority of owners use their car without giving a second thought to the mechanics and just let the systems take care of everything.

Sat nav updates from eBay
I can count on one hand the amount of times the built in sat nav has re-routed me. It always says queuing traffic in x amount of miles but never offers an alternative. It is really basic compared with other systems. The POI function in my opinion is only good for larger organisations. If I need to find a smaller one I have to find it on Google & then put in the post code on the system. Is the Columbus system any better?

Sat nav updates from eBay
No. I've done it myself. If you run into trouble just delete any files on the disk & copy the old one's back. If you're using a Mac then you need to use a program to remove some files which get added & cause display problems. Others can advise better than me if you have this problem.

You don't have to format the card. Just back up the old data, delete the old files & copy the new one's onto it. Plenty of info available in this forum on how to download the files & unzip them to the card.

High consumption
Are you getting the readings from the display in the car or taking your own readings by filling the tank to the top, zero the trip counter, drive till nearly empty and then refill to the top?. Calculate the consumption that way.

Octavia reading lights query
Can you contact the previous owner & ask what modification has been done?. Why would you want them on during the day?. Or, is there a fault with the circuit board & they are receiving a small amount of power just to illuminate them?.
