The map data can theoretically be installed via both cd and sd card and is stored on the unit itself but from experience it tends to update firmware via disc and maps via protected sd card. It uses cd based maps that can be loaded onto an sd card through the unit itself so you can use the cd slot.

If you start researching this, you will soon find that you come to a dead-end like all of those other poor souls who once trod before you. People have been trying for years to find a way around updating the RNS maps without having to spend a fortune purchasing an official protected SD card from SEAT, but to date no-one has been successful in doing that. The RNS can only be updated using an SD card which must be one of the original protected SD cards otherwise the map update process just rejects it. You can't do that with the RNS unfortunately because map updates work in a completely different way than on the RNS The RNS can be updated via a disc which is why you can do it. I assumed that I would be able to use the same method for my RNS although I've not wanted the updated maps enough to actually look into it further yet. He downloaded the new maps and the wrote it to CD which he then put into the car in order to install. Joined: Dec 6, Messages: Likes Received: 0. So if you want map updates, the only option is to pay the extortionate ransom fee to SEAT. To date, no-one seems to have cracked the SD card protection mechanism. Once an SD card has is used to update the maps on an RNS unit, it gets locked to that unit so it can't then be used on another car.Įven if you could download maps and put them on an SD card it wouldn't work because of the SD card protection mechanism which a standard SD card won't have. The SD card has protection built into it so it can't be copied. Joined: Jun 12, Messages: 1, Likes Received: You can only update the maps using an official SD card.
