I used the original sd card.

Cracked it On a 2013-15 Octavia with an amundsen MIB1 unit follow these steps to upload the latest map.. Using a Windows PC (not a Mac) access the skoda update portal, www.updateportal.skoda-auto.com, enter your VIN number and follow the instructions to download the map. Erase the data on the existing card, formatting is the quickest way, and then upload the data onto the card. This took about 1.5 hours and was accomplished at my local Skoda dealer, Preston's of Writtle, Essex, (sorry for the advert but they deserve a mention as Kasey was excellent in helping me resolve the problem) as they used their PC to achieve this. Good luck and don't give up.

Hi I have tried all that you have suggested. I am now using the original SD card, formatted it, copied the data to it and then loaded - cleanmydrive2 - The Amundsen unit now starts loading but then defaults to no playable files on this drive ?? Any idea's would be appreciated.

Hi I have tried to update my maps on a 2013 Octavia. I contacted Skoda who gave me the details of the location to download the latest map and how to do it. They said I could purchase a new sd card and download to that. I tried this but when installed in car it just kept saying "Please insert a data medium with valid navigation data". I spoke to Skoda customer services who advised that the new card might not be compatible with the car and to use the original card, copy the files to a spare directory and then erase the ones on the card by reformatting the card. Then copy the latest download to the original card and it will work. No. When i plug the SD card in now this one is now saying "Please insert..................." . I deleted the files and copied the original map data back onto the card but it is still saying "Please insert etc etc". Having read a lot of info on this forum site it would appear that I should not have formatted the card to erase the files but just copied the new ons over. Help?
