Yes it is the size of the file for some reason there is a 2gb limit to download to the car the last 2 updates have been nearly 3gb.

I was trying to download the latest version 1390, a long story, when I noticed I was getting my maps updated OTA, and when I checked the version number it was 1386, so I'll think I will let Volvo take all the stress away and wait for 1390 to be installed OTA

I now have map version 1390 on a USB stick. For those on this forum who enjoy the detail (you know who you are): The NW Europe files are 2.76GB
Wonder if it’s down to the size of the file that it’s not over the air update then ??
I believe that's why 1386 and 1390 had to be d/l to a USB. My previous updates all d/l OTA direct to the car.

Looks like online map updates (via USB at https://www.volvocars.com/hr/support/do ... spa/europe ) are usually available one day before your car gets the OTA update information. I've put my USB stick with full Europe 1390 update in my car on Thursday evening and it started updating right away, without trying to do the partial OTA update before that. The USB update 1390 finished the day after, on a longer trip and it works fine so far.

The USB update takes 30 minutes, and is MUCH better than the other systems I have had experience of (Ford Sync 3, Renault R-Link and MediaNav). Sync MAYBE produces one update a YEAR, it rarely downloads seamlessly and takes 6-8 hours to download, and then at least 2 hrs to install. R-Link and MediaNav are updated maybe 2-3 times a year and again take huge times to download and about an hour to install.

The other thing that helps us all is to raise a ticket with HERE (the map company) when you find a map error...

My UK map is at version 1386. I do nothing and the car updates itself. Surely life's too short to chase the latest version all the time.

You were right! Today my car downloaded v1383 OTA and many regional map updates are back to small size below 1GB. I was stuck for a month with the old version, I didn’t use computer download on USB drive so I’m glad that OTA updates are back.

Am I right in thinking that 1390 is only available via USB? I have auto updates ticked since installing 1386 via USB but nothing has happened OTA.

Why burn up your mobile data when you've likely got unlimited broadband?
