I went to my local VW dealer to see if they would be able to update my maps for me and they quoted me £160. After picking myself up off the floor I headed home to see if there was a cheaper alternative and believe me this is it. This biggest difficulty I had was identifying the unit in my vehicle. I narrowed it down to 2 possible units and took a chance that this was the right one and thankfully it was. The item comes in a small plastic container with no other documentation but all you have to do is put the SD card into the slot and work through the instructions and after 2 hours it's updated. Very easy to do and if you switch off the engine while the update is in progress then it's not an issue as it resumes when you start the engine again. I highly recommend this item.

Works perfectly. Just put the card in the head unit, accept what the screen tells you to do and maps update. No problem to start and stop the car multiple times during the loading process as it picks up from where it left off.

It has taken a long time before VAG made an update available for this model. It is very expensive through official channels but this got round it. Being 6 years out of date, I needed to get my roads refreshed.

Over £50 cheaper than the quote from vw, works like a dream, only negative is it takes 2 hrs to install but does that in the background.

Really good and easy to do and use. Updated to V9 and works no problem. On the update it can take couple of hours. But I did mine on the move and it will let you stop and start, as long as you leave the card in. Good purchase. Very happy. Thanks.
