The maps in my BMW also show the road and will guide you down it once you are on it.

I can try next time I have a spare 32gb card.
I used Phils method and installed the maps from my PC using the DC ard reader. That worked OK

I'll try that - thanks.
I'm not sure about the USB port being faulty. I just did an update of the whole of Eastern Europe to the main memory and that worked fine.

This happened on 2 PCs - and the system was active all the time.
How do I clone an SD card?
