Help with Naviextras Satnav update needed please:-
Our 2020 MG HS PHEV’s maps are showing their age so I thought I’d look in to updating the maps if it was at no/low cost. I read around and saw some comments that ‘2 updates were free for MGs’ so I had a go…
When I ran the Toolbox with a successful ‘footprint’ I was expecting to be shown a list of available Map updates and costs.
What actually happened was that a very short download happened followed by the message “A new version for your satnav software has been successfully installed. Please restart “Map Updater”.
I had a look on the USB stick and the only user data files which had an updated timestamp on them were in POI and had filenames including the word ‘MGDealers’ at 228KB. No sign of any map updates. Files with names device_status and device_softwares were also updated but they’re only 1KB.
By “Map Updater” I guess it can only mean the “Update Navigation” option in the MG.
Is this an update to the MG Touch / Naviextras software that will then enable me to do a rerun that offers maps or something else?
TIA
