Question for the forum: If using a Mac (Big Sur 11.1) and doing the map update via Thumb Drive would you format it in Fat 32?. Thanks.

For the new members - Someone created the instructions below for downloading from the Audi site to your computer, so all thanks go to that unnamed member. Audi's Rules for the New Members are at the end of this posting.

Downloading Map Updates:1) Get a 32 Gig SD memory card. Mine cost $20.

2) Go to My Audi site, https://www.audiusa.com/myaudi. Log in.

3) Click on the “Audi connect services” icon (below the car).

4) On the services tab, click the right arrow to scroll to “Map update.” Click on it.

5) You can choose “Complete package” or “Individual country.” Your choice. I chose complete package.

6) Put you SD card in your computer. Alternately, you can load the map files to your hard drive. Click on “prepare package” at the bottom.

7) This will download a file called “downloader” with a bunch of numbers after the word.

8) You MUST have the latest version of Java. It will prompt you if needed.

9) On the Mac, I needed to go into my security settings to allow the downloader file to open.

10) It will open with a Java screen, followed by a Download client window that says “my Audi.” It asks you to choose a folder location for the files. Pick a location on your hard drive or SD card and click to go.

11) The download starts and is tracked in the Download client window. The size of the files is 10.6 gig. It took about 2 hours to download on my computer.

12) Once the files are downloaded, transfer them to your SD card if you didn’t load them direct. There will be two files “0231001C.md5”, “metainfo2.txt” and two folders “Mib1” and Mib2”. All are needed.

13) Go to your car. You can do this while you are driving or stationary but the car must be on (not necessarily running but on).

14) Stick the SD card into the SD1 slot in your glove box.

15) In your MMI, go to Main menu>>Settings. Push the MMI scroll wheel to the left, it brings up a menu that says “MMI setup” and “System update.” Pick “System update.”

16) Pick SD1 (i.e. where you put your SD card) and press the MMI button to select.

17) The nav update will start and inform you of progress on the MMI screen. updates took about 20 minutes to load.

Audi's Update Rules Are:
1.The latest map updates can be downloaded here free of charge and then installed in the vehicle via SD card. You can download and install the updates an unlimited number of times. The Map Update includes the first five updates to the version of the map installed at the factory. The updates are issued every six months.

2. Transferring the new map package overwrites the map package currently stored in the MMI. The currently installed version can be found in the MMI under -> Setup MMI -> Version information -> Navigation database country versions.

3. You can also have the new map data installed by an Audi dealer (there would be a charge for this service).

Happy Updating!
