Please try this using the 2018 map update:

- set country to Ireland (IRL)
- enter town of 'New Ross'
- enter the street name 'Mountgarrett Road'

For me this is not possible, there is only one road starting with 'M' called Mount Carmel. Mountgarrett is not a new road.

Then try this:

- set country to Ireland (IRL)
- enter postcode of Y34 XH74

For me this is also not possible. After entering 'Y' it won't let me enter any numbers - they are all disabled. This means that an entire postcode area in Ireland cannot be entered.

Sigh... would be interested to know if this is affecting others or just me.

I'm now driving a CX-5 and have same issue in that Irish Republic codes (Eirecodes) not accepted on my Mazda satnav,which is provided by HERE, as it was on Qashqai's.
(It seems to be expect UK format of 2 letters first, whereas in Ireland it's letter, then 2 numbers.)
Different map provider on latest models I hear eg TT.

I've submitted moan to Mazda, as these codes have been around since 2015!
