Have you read the posts above? Unzip using Windows (right click, "extract all") rather than 7Zip or similar. I bet your download is OK, it's just been zipped oddly by VAG.

Not sure if it helps but I got the stop/start dash warning, and limp mode, a few times last winter when it was cold and the car hadn't been used for some time. Charging the battery always fixed it, and it hasn't happened since. Maybe it's the first thing checked, or the most sensitive to low battery voltage

I thought I'd read somewhere not to use micro SD cards in an SD adapter. I could never understand why, and as I happened to have a 64GB micro SD card handy I used that for the update, which worked fine.

The impression I got was that it's considered a factory/dealer fit option so covered by the 3-year vehicle warranty (or at least, doesn't invalidate the warranty!). Hope I never need to find out. Price of most electronics/tech stuff at the moment is high, and supply chain is very constrained "because Covid".

I think it was £350 inc. VAT. (2019 Scout)

I had mine fitted by Professional Retrofits near Nuneaton (right next to the MIRA test circuit). Paul did a great job, and there's a nice walk along the canal while you wait, as it takes several hours. Official VAG parts and registered on "the database" apparently.

Is there no way to edit the download so you can just update your home country? That would only take a few minutes to install. I'm pretty sure I won't be taking my car outside the UK for at least another one or two map cycles, so I really don't need the latest maps of everywhere else in Europe.

Same here - late 2019 UK TDi 190, 7 seats, factory retractable towbar. Ride is fine.

A minor point but unlike the 2020/2021 update, this one won't quite fit on a freshly-formatted 32GB NTFS card (so don't waste 20 minutes or so unzipping it until it fails at 99%). No problem unzipping / installing when reformatted FAT32. (I'm not sure why some Youtube videos recommend NTFS, though that worked last time for me).
