Latest Infotainment version Bolero
WhoElse replied to aldouk's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
I should have clarified, it;s a Bolero MIB1 I think (it has the CD and 1SD card in the glove). Can anyone PM me the latest software for it? thank you! Mike -
Thank you! Got it, confirming only one SD card in the head unit in the glove box. Honestly for sat-nav, I am quite happy to use my phone with a blitzwolf magnet stuck into the aircon - that updates software far faster, and I can ask google assistant to navigate to wherever i want as i drive. I'll fish around on the ICE thread to see if there any software update for the Bolero, I see people mentioning versions as new as 0490, although it seems like more bugfixes that any new features. So I don't *need* to update, but i'm just techie enough to be compelled to!

SOG110 - how did you upgrade? I have a new (to me!) late 2014 Octavia mIII VRS. The system info states: Part number: 5E0035842A Hardware: 041 Software: 0435 Media Codec: N/A Looks the exact same except mine must have no satnav, despite being the same model? Any guidance very welcome! Mike

I'm new to the Skoda, so sorry I'm missing some basics. Thanks for the explanation! Regards what model radio it is, there's no satnav so it's likely a Bolero I guess? Also, when I put the VIN into https://updateportal.skoda-auto.com/, it says "UPDATE OF YOUR SYSTEM BOLERO" so I guess it's a basic Bolero model? Going into Setup, all I can tell is the following: Software version - MSTD_EU_SK_P3420 Installed Software MU version: 0435 Part number: 5E0035842A Hardware: 041 Software: 0435 Media Codec: N/A Confusingly, when I google Skoda hardware 041, the image search tags indicate that it's an Amundsen MIB1. I trust experienced end users more than a generic Skoda VIN checker! Or are they the same hardware, but some have satnav disabled? Sorry for all the newbie questions! Mike

Latest Infotainment version Bolero

Is it possible to get the latest update, Skoda Octavia VRS 2014. I'm guessing Bolero, as the menu has no satnav options (new owner!) Device: 5E0035842A H/W: 041 S/W: 0435 Media Codec: N/A Thanks to anyone who can send it on, much appreciated! -
I apologise if I missed a sticky/FAQ - I just wanted to ask, does anyone know how best to identify the radio type, and MIB level, and from there what my Smartlink options are? I suspect I'm out of luck, I have an imported UK Octavia vRS, sold first in the UK in Dec 2014. Is that far too old - would it require buying a new head unit? If this is threadjacking I can start a new one, it just seems related. Thanks! Mike
