I tried to do them by WiFi, but quickly realised they were going to take forever to download all of them, so loaded them up on a USB flash drive instead. Even then it took an age to download, and a very long time to load up into the Sat Nav unit.

On reflection, perhaps it was stupid to download all of them, as I’m only ever going to use my car in the UK. Quite what use (to me) are maps of Baltic States, Armenia, and European Oceans??? I don‘t really know?
Hi,

Can you help me with two questions please?

a) What version maps are you being offered?.
If I check for new maps, whilst it suggests its offering "new" maps, but the version offered and version installed is identical.

b) You mention having downloaded the maps to a USB stick, to load into the car. What site do you goto in order to download the files please?.

Thanks

a) iirc, they show up as "2017.12 Update 2" but again, iirc, the Update 2 portion may not be totally visible.
b) take the clean USB into the car and start the map update process there, selecting USB option, it takes seconds. Then go to your PC where you have already installed the Nissan Map Update tool and it detects when you have plugged in a USB key with map info on it, it then does the rest, ie downloads what you select from wherever it's hardcoded to connect to. Then back to the car for the update there (from the USB key).

Make sure you have registered for the Nissan You+ site as I think that's where u can download the map update tool from.

There's a new update out there for Android Auto, which has a new interface and a 'dark mode' which should be easier on the eyes when driving at night.

I've only just downloaded it onto my phone, so haven't had a chance to try it yet, but it sounds like they're addressing the main issues people are having with it.

Not a clue! No info anywhere online either but iirc, quite a bit bigger than 0808.

The map updates are better doing via the pc and usb stick.
Nissan have date stamped the maps wrong
the first ones were 2017-12-1 version 1
the new ones are 2017-12-1 version 2
when you do it via the car and wifi it seems you have the same maps as it only looks and the first 9 chars
but via the pc you can see the differnace
thet should have date stamped 2018-06 then the car would have flagged up correct.
after updating now getting message maps up to date
Rung Nissan re maps got bounced to tomtom who reffered e back to nissan
nissian could not understand the confusion they have caused
Even the Service people were not aware of the confusion over the date version until they checked them selves.
