Nav update and Bluetooth gremlins

[houseofscouse]

Hi everyone.

 

I'm looking to update the sat nav on my recently purchased Mk2. Am I able to do this via the Skoda website for free or do I need to pay to do it? The Skoda website only seems to mention cars from 2015 onwards which I assume is the Mk3. Does anyone know what I need to do in order to update?

 

Also, when I first got the car a couple of months ago, I could play Spotify via Bluetooth as well as make/take calls. Now only the calls work and I have to connect Spotify via an aux cable. It just doesn't seem to be able to recognise my music. Any ideas why/what I might have done wrong?

 

Many thanks!

There are no updates available for your car, the most recent maps have been published few years ago and there will never be more updates published.

 

Check in your phone Bluettoth profies allowed for connection with your Skoda Bluetooth module.

Oh right - my maps are dated 2012. I thought there was a 2020 version released. My mistake.

 

Thanks for the advice regarding the Bluetooth. Will do.

This is the version I have now. Should this be able to be updated, or am I likely to need a firmware update too?

Hmm

the Skoda update portal asks for my vin. obviously there's no update for my 2014 Fabia as it didn't have nav. I've retrofitted and Amundsen+ unit so anyone willing so share a suitable vin. (Private message) that will suit my RNS315
