TrundleFly Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 I searched the forum but couldn't find anything recent on this. I have an 05 D3 3.0TDI and it has the original map DVD in. I called my local dealer and they want £200 to update it to the 2012 version, which seems ridiculous. A couple of questions: - Are there any other places to buy GENUINE map updates? - Do the map DVDs need to be activated in some way by Audi? I saw a few posts indicating that but nothing solid. E.g. if I manage to get a second hand DVD would I still have to take it to Audi to activate it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snapdragon Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 Yes, but usually same price. No, only on much later 2009-on models with DVD not HDD navi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrundleFly Posted March 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 So literally all they have to do is give you a DVD and they charge £200 for that? They don't even have to do anything, at most slot it into your DVD drive? Jees, that's some good profit. I could buy a brand new TomTom or something for that, except I can't get a GPS signal in the car due to the metallic layer in the screen...

PsYcHe Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 They do need to licence the maps from someone else and do some work, but yes, 200 quid a go is daft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
