Also if you do any map updates, use the VW sat navigation site for a more up to date set of maps. Use Golf GTi as the car (after 2017) and then choose either: I have a 2013 Skoda Octavia Estate Diesel, Elegance Model. The internal touch sensitive controls (not the buttons down the sides) for the Radio, Sat Nav and media etc occasionally do not work. I.e. the screen freezes until I press and hold the on/off button which seems to clear things by re-booting the whole system . It used to work OK and with not using the car much during lockdown, I cannot say when the problem started, but probably in the last 6 months. What does work is the radio and phone functions. The sat nav works very occasionally, Spotify sometimes and there is no access to other apps most importantly, Google maps at all.

Then undo the nut to the fin. Help may be required to hold the fin down. The nut may not come completely off - it has an anti-theft device - a small flap of metal on the nut. Once the nut is turning freely pull the fin up from the outside (may have to pull quite hard). The nut will fall off. Urrell. 8317 posts · Joined 2014. #2 · May 16, 2020. Go to " Update portal " and insert your VIN. Choose the map to down load. It has to go on your original Skoda map SD card so best to back this up on your computer just in case. WMH027.
