Another connect issue....

Has anyone had problems with google maps displaying today?
Set off for Fishguard and when I crossed into Wales I lost google maps on the mmi display, it still worked as a sat nav, just displayed a brownish green smudge for all the surrounding area - a bit like normal display but with no resolution.
I tried changing between map displays and switched the car off for a few minutes but it still stayed the same.
Display on VC is as it should be though weirdly.
Away this week so don't really want to try a reset till I'm home, failing that has anyone updated their maps directly from the car?

Yes I have.
This is what I did...

Press Menu
Go to Audi Connect
Go to Software update
Tick the empty box for the map update even if it says zero MB (Was offered `England South` and a list of other countries. Added `England North`)
Press Continue (or whatever it says to start the update)

I needed to switch the car off when prompted to park for the update to take effect.

Have done a map update over the embedded SIM a couple of times and its fine. Nice thing is that it even has ability to pause/resume during your drives - then all of a sudden it just says it's updated

Sweet, thanks guys.
It obviously needed to be switched off long enough to initiate when it switched back on because it was ok again this morning.
I'll have a go at the update when I'm back.
