Cars With A Installed Sat-Nav.
How do you update a fixed car sat-nav ?, you can not connect it to your laptop or can you  :hmm:

Hi tickmike

I believe it depends on the sat nav. Older cars perhaps not, but modem headunits can usually use 3/4g or wifi, and download latest versions and real time traffic etc...

I know our headunit is updated over wifi/3/4g

The only thing to remember is if factory fit headunit, the cat manufacture usually only includes approx 3 years subscription for updates, then you start to pay for updates

Many thanks

John

The one in MY 2009 VW is updated via the CD player, I think it may also be possible via the SD card slot.

I've got a horrible feeling my 2012 VW Passat can only be upgraded by the main dealer, which is a bit of a shame as the blank screen moments are becoming steadily more often.

We are going to look at a new Vauxhall Mokka X, It's another thing I will ask about when I go for a test drive.
