I'm a new owner of a 2011 q7 tdi s line. I live in an area where there has been a lot of development. I would like to get a map upgrade.

Is this a trip to the dealer$hip? Or can I buy a cd/DVD somewhere and do it myself?

not worth a trip to the dealer IMO but that could be just where i live and my crap dealer. There is a member on AW and on AZ that will send you a SD card with freshly updated maps for a reasonable price. A trip to 'my' dealer for navi maps upgrade would run me around $450 with 'labor'. with all due respect; i rarely use my Q7's Nav anymore with the advent of google maps, Waze, AroundMe, etc on smart phones but that's just me. I'll try to remember who the AW member is and will post back shortly.

the member is Philip0001 and he's definitely over on AudiZine.

thanks for the info and I will look that up. Call me paranoid, but I dont care for the tracking apps that track and log where I am. I'd rather use the built in option or a Garmin.

Dealership cost me around $1,000. Will not upgrade again.

I've used Philip0001 and can recommend him. He's local to me, so we met up to do my upgrade but I would have no issues dealing with him remotely.

Thanks. I do have a PM out to him on AZ. We'll see how it goes.
