Hi,

I have a Skoda Karoq 68 reg.

I have tried to download & install the latest maps.

When I try to download the maps I am getting a 'network error' message put if I select the resume option the maps eventually are downloaded onto my laptop.

I've then unzipped the file onto a new SD card (should I only use the existing Skoda SD card) but when I plug it into the cat I am getting "Navigation Database is unavailable".

Do I install the card with the engine switched off?

Any help/suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Mike

Hi, you need to use the Skoda card, as it has a security partition on it.

Make sure you copy the existing files to you computer before you format the card.

Good Luck

Thanks, that makes sense.

Mike

Sorry, do I need to reformat the card or just cut and paste onto the laptop?

Not sure what would happen if I reformatted the card with a security partition on it, ie would I wipe that out?

Formatting the card won't touch the security partition

You might have more success in the Karoq section of the forum. Requesting this posting be moved over there...

There is also a section called Audio, Electronics and Security that would probably assist you; there are also many postings on how to update your Amunsden/Columbus system as necessary.

Ignition on only, no need to have the engine running.

Hi all,

Firstly my apologizes that I didn't post this in the correct area. I'm not sure how to how it nor why when I logged in I came to this particular area..

I am still facing a problem which as been reported on other sites. The Skoda Update Portal isnt working correctly and is timing out on the downloads. Does anybody know how this can be reported to Skoda?

Mike

Hi all,

I too was having the same issue so raised it with Skoda customer services.

It looks to have now been fixed as I can download the maps without any issues.
