Just had a peep at my sd card in my 6 month old tekna 1.5 after I removed the plastic cover and pressed the sd card it wasn't moving! I noticed a brass object across the edge of the card which was stopping it being removed I carefully prized it away .. I will try to enclose a photo of it but I can only assume it was there as an anti theft deterrent! Perhaps as the vehicle was ex enterprise they may have put it in.[img][Just had a peep at my sd card in my 6 month old tekna 1.5 after I removed the plastic cover and pressed the sd card it wasn't moving!

My ex-Hertz car didn't have one - though I suppose the dealer might have removed it

My qashqai has one of these in the SD card slot.

Took the car the main dealer for free mapcare update today and they wouldn't even attempt to remove, said they had seen this from rental companies to prevent theft. Only advice they could give us using a small dremmell or something to cut the metal at the front and then try to prize it open and get it out.

They did give me another SD card with the latest maps on, i just can't figure out how to get this metal thing out so i can get the SD card out. Whose idea was this? Surely there's an "official" way to remove this device? Anyone?

Welcome to this forum.

Apart from the posting above I've not seen reference to this problem anywhere else.

I think careful prizing is the answer though as attempting to cut it out would result in metal particles potentially dropping into awkward places.

I presume looking at that photo that the small "wings" were originally keeping the brace in place and they've been bent backwards in the successful extraction attempt. At least you potentially know what you're up against albeit it may not be the same - and I couldn't find any examples on the internet.

I know this is an older post but did you manage to get this sorted in the end? I have just bought a 2018 ex-enterprise rental and have the same thing. I don't really want to remove it because I'm afraid of denting the plastic around it but it's wedged in super tightly.

Any tips on the best way to remove it?

Welcome to this forum

Can't you ask the garage you bought it from?

The forum has definitely been of help today!!!

I have just had a Major Service done on my Sept 2017 J11 at my local main dealer. Which is not just round the corner.

So I asked at drop off this morning will it get a map update and told it would, I even saw it written on their todo list as well as some recall work related to auto braking.

Which I was glad about as I wanted the latest map data.

So fast forward to collection and check the usual have they remembered to stamp my book and I also asked about the map update whilst with the Service advisor. As my paperwork didn’t indicate anything.

So thought just look at SD Card, but both I and the advisor could not remove it. So he went and got some paperwork of theirs and confirmed that definitely it had been done. So even though neither of us could remove the SD card I took him at his word and his paperwork.

So then left.

However on journey home the fact that the card could not be removed played on my mind, so then looked on here.

Then found this, I had the same brass coloured strip, so I obviously discovered that I had the same brass SD Lock device.

My car is ex “enterprise” so it all fitted, So I have now with a small screwdriver removed it on my return to home.

Which then brings me back to my Map Update, as clearly this has not happened at all.

Not happy at all with Dealer so now waiting on their response to this.

Monetary wise I have not lost out as this is done as car less than 3 years old and part of Major Service.

It is more the principal and the obvious lies to me.

Image is of the SD card Lock device I removed on my return home.

Now that I can actually remove the card then nothing actually that I have knowledge of significant on it, I did also take photo of info on screen before and after and that never changed, it may well be that I already have the latest SD Map Data but regardless of this, that isn’t what they said, they said they had Updated it.
