Hi all,

I have MHS2_ER AU_P2035 and I wanted to update mmi with a new maps 2022/2023.
I donwloaded Congo activator 2.5 and maps from the first post.
I left my original SD card (with old maps) in slot 2 while I inserted SD card with activator in slot 1.
System rebooted after a message that activator is "competed successfully".
After that I removed both SD cards and inserted SD card with maps 2022/2023 but even after a few minutes the maps are not loaded.

Just to mention I just copied 4 folders (database, eggnog, speech, truffles) and 2 files (DBinfo.txt and WMPInfo.xml) to SD card after I extracted .7z from Mega. Any ideas what might be the issue? Anyone else have issues with 2022/2023 maps?

1. have you checked that the FEC 023000EE for Audi maps are active?
2. that the sd card (no micro card with adapter) has FAT32?
3. if the old/original sd card with maps are still working, its an issue of sd card or maps

Thanks for the response @alex-07 !

1. I don't see that one with EE but there are:
00030000
00030001
00040100
00050000
00060100
00060200
00060300
00060400
00060800
00060900
00070200
023000f0
023100f0
023d00f0
02500020
025000f0
025100f0
025d00f0

Should I use some other maps or is there a way to activate 023000EE?

2. For maps I have used FAT32 one piece SD card.

 

[alex-07]

023000f0 is also ok as "lifetime" maps, 023100f0 are Audi NAR Maps "lifetime" maps, 023d00f0 are Audi RoW Maps

are the old maps working? maybe the download you done was corrupted, no mac pc using for it!

The old SD card (original Audi one) is still working. I will use another card to copy 2022/2023 maps to exclude bad/corupted card.

 

[alex-07]

yes, test it out .... sometimes helps .. slow formating FAT32)

I used another card and it worked. Thanx @alex-07 and @congo
Besides navigation is the activator enabling any other useful options which require a subscription? I see Audi Connect is showing all services as expired.

Hi, noob here, I have an Audi A4 B9 with mhs2_er_au_p1242 mu0213, I've read through all the 21 pages but I haven't understood a thing: for the maps do I need the activator? Or can I simply put the maps on a sd card and insert it in the infotainment?

 

[alleshateinende31]

Update to
MHS2_ER_AU_P2035

afterwards use Congo Aktivator from page 1

 

[michele.fa]

Update to
MHS2_ER_AU_P2035

afterwards use Congo Aktivator from page 1

So physically what do I need to do?

1) Download the mhs2_er_au_p2035
2) Install via sd card (?)
3) Download activator
4) Install via sd card (?)
5) Download and write maps on sd card

Is this correct?

 

[alex-07]

first read this #370 · , maybe you like GE too then remain on P1242 and only using congo activator v.2.5 thats all
if you update to 2035 are GE not longer possible!!!

YES, your way are correct,
I would start with point 3)

Thanks! Just a last question, do I leave the maps in .7z or do I need to decompress them?

you must decompress them and not place them in a folder.

 

[michele.fa]

Thank you! One last (I hope) question, does the car need to be idling during the process? Can I drive it while I wait? Or does the engine need to be switched off?

 

[fred44nl]

you must not do anything that could interrupt the update-process.
the ignition must be on, at least.
you can have the car running idle, to charge the battery.
you can also connect a battery-charger.
I do not recommend to drive around, you never know what happens.

All clear, how long does the whole process take more or less?

I can not answer that, sorry

1. like explain unzip/decompress the maps to the sd card (its on root) looks then like this

2. the congo activator process takes about 5 min! so its fast
3. new maps on sd card into car takes for working also some minutes to load it
...
4. if any new fw update can take longer so running car or battery charger recommented (up to 40min)
I personal have no problems with running engine on my Audi, recomendation are with out running engine and charger and some dealers using hazard lights on
to avoid that the unit/can bus goes into sleep mode

let us know if you done it and result
