Congrats Julian.
Well done.
I'm not jealous, not jealous, really not jealous.
I don't really want one!!

My one has
Media version:
HN+R_EU_AU_P0783
Nav. database version:
8R0060884BT ECE 6. 19.3

I am assuming that’s dated now?

Hi M3;

Yes, they are the original versions installed on your 2014 car.

I believe that the P in front of the ...0783 in the HN+ number indicates a 'factory install' [updates to the MMI seem to have a K number].

The ECE 6.19.3 map data number is for the 2014/5 maps. [Unlike the 2G maps on DVD, the 3G+ maps seem to be issued twice a year, so there was a 2014 [6.17.3], 2014/5 [6.19.3] & 2015 [6.20.4] map].

Latest MMI version seems to be K942, which is over 18 months old; latest [2019/2020] map is ECE 6.29.1.

Julian

Thanks Julian for the detailed response. How does one get hold of the latest SW etc without the Stealers? Not going back there after the recent damage they did to my alloys!:mad:

I can probably help on the firmware and map front - I have most versions of firmware for various generations of Audi, and I installed 6.29.1 on my S5 a while back

Am just South of Gatwick if you don't mind a trek out of the smoke

Thanks for the nice offer Adrian as always, will keep that in mind. I think our Neel said he might have the SW update on SD card. How complex is it to burn on sd card?

Not difficult to do - just need to make sure the correct folder structure is used. If it’s wrong it just won’t recognise it so no risk of harm

Running the update is a little time consuming but not horrific

So do you need 2 SD cards? For map and SW update

You can re-use the SD card - do firmware first, reformat SD card. write map files to it.

Note that the map file needs a high speed 32GB card as the map files are huge.

I just use one of the ones we store music on in the car, having kept a backup of the music files to write back on when done

For your Info mine is exactly the same as Julians.


What is the difference between ECE 6.27.2 and ECE 6.29.1 Maps.
Just reread it all, 6.29.1 is the latest map.


Adrian, how easy is it to do the map update? I drove past yours on Sunday evening on my home from Germany.
