There's a couple of new roads in Bedford still not on v16!

From memory, I just burned the file to a DVD-R, shoved it into the RNS and it did the rest.  It takes ages and there is no acknowledgement it's completed either.  It's a bit of a vague and crap process.

In all honesty, I get on better with Apple or Google maps.  I don't miss my RNS510 one bit  :grin:  I have a rubber case on my phone and just put in the middle of the clocks, it doesn't slide around.  A poor man's version of VAGs new hybrid clocks  :grin:

Sounds a bit crazy.

If you know the road hasn't been updated, why does it matter  :grin:

Didn’t know the new one was out already, but the V15 update last year was no different to the V14 maps for roads around where I live, with several missing roads or postcodes and quirks like it doesn’t know you can turn right from a certain road and tries to make you go a longer way than necessary.
Personally I don’t think it’s the best nav but it is convenient to have it permanently in the car having used removable windscreen mounted ones in the past.

Because there is a high probability roads you don't know haven't been added either  :wink:   

When I say 'new' roads in Bedford, they were built over 2 years ago.

Google maps is updated constantly.  VW maps?  Once a year?

It's Navteq that makes the maps. They should do a better job... like consult Google Maps before issuing a new update! :signLOL:

Are the POI and speed cameras built into the maps or are they separate files?

It continues from where it stopped. The radio keeps updating for about 30 minutes after turning off the ignition too. :smiley:

While installing my maps the car turned off power halfway through (even though key was in ignition still), so I turned on again and the maps started to install again from where it had got to before. Will this be ok or should I reinstall the whole maps from scratch?
It seems to have updated in the version info settings.

It's fine. It completes the update like that without issues. The radio shut off to prevent draining the battery too much.

Probably a really stupid question but how do you update the maps with the speed cameras?

Thought I would ask before I buy some discs, anyone happy to sell me a copy of their maps? I have a mac and I've had issues with burning the maps before so really wanted to avoid going down that route!

I get a camera database for GPS units (TomTom, etc.) of my country and then make my RNS-510 POI personal database with POInspect0r. After making the file I upload it to my radio on the Setup menu. This adds the cameras to the default POI on my map.

On my v16 maps, the speed cameras were already on there once I loaded the disc along with the other POIs.

Actually the speed cameras I have on my maps may have come from a previous POI file I loaded.
I did get a file with speed camera updates when I ordered my maps disc from eBay.
It says July 2018 though, so there are probably more up to date files out there, but this is quite an easy way of loading the database file onto the RNS 510 via SD card.

That’s Eastern Europe as well, whereas we need Western Europe (assuming you are in UK). I think V16 is last year’s.

I have seen V17 maps mentioned on a GPS forum somewhere, but they’ve not made their way onto eBay this year for some reason, perhaps they are harder to copy the files now?

I need the POI/Speed camera file too as I got a new RNS 510 DAB last year and don’t have anything loaded onto it yet.

Yes ok I will have another look to see if I can find them.
I don’t have a DVD burning drive myself, hence why I usually end up buying the maps from eBay.

No, I’ve been told by someone that makes the discs, that they haven’t been released yet. A couple of months ago there were fake ones about, but no official ones yet.

The poi don't get altered with the update as it is separate. It's just the map that gets updated and if you have poi already installed they stay on

I have one of the older versions of the RNS510 with the top right button with speaker and 'i' symbol - this means I cant load the new maps 2016 on as now dual Layer disc and my drive is single layer when you have this button.  Anybody recommend somebody trustworthy to update the firmware and the maps to latest version - online it sounds like a real mess around, and high risk of bricking my old model (JULY-2008 Manufacture Version H03)...

Anybody on here who would be prepared to update using the Memory Card route, only way?  Or know of a company that can do for reasonable money?

That's not the true issue. Your radio hard drive needs more space on the maps partition. You need to install a modified firmware that takes space from the music partition to the maps partition. If you're not comfortable doing that, it's better to contact a retrofitter or upgrade your RNS-510 to a newer revision. I had that issue with my factory fitted RNS-510 Revision A when I wanted to install more recent maps (2016 at the time). I later bought a Revision R so I didn't need to worry about the disc reader not reading some DVD due to dirty lenses.
