Not much help unfortunately, but mine went wrong recently during a map DVD update - LR dealers confirmed that the box under the seat is not capable of repair and is swap out/replace if it goes wrong. ...

Thanks npinks - hoped it may just be taking its time. I'm prone to impatience but think there must be something preventing it from completing. Going for the world record in time taken to update the ma ...

Tried searching the forum - no luck - everyone else seems to have got it sorted through patience and cleaning the disc.

I updated my 2007/8 sat nav discs - genuine replacement to 2011/12 - followed ...
