I can supply a fully functional 2015 disc or the one for 2016 with what appears to be no traffic service

Has anyone got the 2016 disc installed and can confirm if TMC has started behaving itself, or if it's still offline?

Just wondering as not sure whether to continue to advise people to stick to the 2015 discs if they want TMC in the UK....

It is still bust and I searched on google and have read it on a few other Audi forums too Not sure if the copy we use is corrupt or the original is fubared but it definately lists UK as having TMC on the packaging. It would be better if it worked as it can be used for emergency messages too such as this one I got 2-3 years ago which came up over the air suspension screen and I wasn't even using navi.

I haven't since, never saw the vehicle in the wrong direction though.
The list of possibilties of TMC is vast, it is a shame it never took off to anything liek it's full potential...

Wow. Had no idea its potential was so great. I considered installing my 2016 maps as we're off to France this Saturday for a holiday. In the UK I reverted back to the 2015 disc.

However, I imagine the fuel shortage out there will be our biggest concern, not traffic!

I wish I knew what files did what within the SW, and could make a hybrid DVD of say 2016 maps files and 2015 TMC files. Alas, I'm not that technically minded.

We're heading to Bruges tomorrow for the weekend - plan is to fill up before leaving here and make sure we top up in Belgium before we get back to France

We're taking the S5 which has a tiny tank and pitiful economy so you're generally looking for a fuel station after 200 miles!
