Does anyone know of anywhere other than Vauxhall where you can get updates for Touch and Connect. This is probably the worst sat nav I have ever used and depending on the cost of updates I am seriously thinking of reverting to my Mio.
Sat Nav Updates

Your looking at about £120 from a dealer, my car came with 2010/11 edition, I complained to vauxhall and they said it was old stock the factory had used up! I complained and the dealer and vauxhall went halfies each. The box that it came with said the maps were TomTom but I don't think ordinary TomTom updates work.
No way would I pay £120 for updating the rubbish touch and connect system as you can get a really good unit for far less than that!Edited by: JR123

That's what I have stamped on the card in my new 2013 model. Could you have a look at your 'updated' card and let us know if there is anything different stamped on it?JR123 said:
JR123, I'm curious how you were able to find out that your maps were 2010/2011, as I have no date to be seen anywhere on the card? Can you do a version check through the satnav unit itself, such as on an 'info' page? I have not found anything revealing in the manual so far, so I'm hoping you can shed some light on it for us?
Thanks.

Yeah of course I'll check - my car is still in the bodyshop and not sure when I'll get it back as the first paint job is getting re-done as the paint has gone a funny colour under the lacquer.
How I knew my maps were out of date was because roads in my area which had been changed approx 3 or more years ago where not on the system, yet were on the tomtom system in my renault. I contacted Vauxhall customer services asking why this was and the response I got back was my car was fitted 2010/11 maps so mapping probably done in 2009 and that Vauxhall couldn't control if the factory was using up old stock..... They said I had to paid for the upgrade I said no and that on a circa £27k car you should not be required to pay for updates. I believe the dealer and Vauxhall went halfies, but to be honest I didn't think the dealer was to blame at all.
All I know is the box I got the upgrade is for Vauxhall / Opel 2013 mapping.......Edited by: JR123
