It’s as though they put out version 1 of their software and never touch it again. Is there anything I can do to remedy this myself?Īs a rant, I can’t believe how difficult Mazda makes this. What’s my best option here? Does it make sense to let them “diagnose?” I’m tempted to just do the upgrade to Apple CarPlay and forgo maps. They want to keep the car till Monday when another tech can diagnose the maps.

Today, Dealership 2 quoted $60 for an Infotainment software update after which the maps still isn’t working. Forums recommend to drive with SD card for 60 miles after which car should “rewrite” to card.Īttempted to repeat step 3 but got step 9 ad nauseum.Īfter that, I went to one dealership where they quoted $299 to diagnose the issue. Mazda software no longer recognizes SD card.Īttempted to reinstall files from desktop back to SD. Got “not enough free space on disk” error.ĭragged existing files from SD card to desktop. I downloaded the map update software Toolbox from Mazda USAīalked and rolled by eyes at the price to upgrade (seriously WTF). I removed the SD card from my car and put it in my computer’s SD slot. These are the steps I took to attempt the update: The Infotainment/navigation worked fine until recently when I attempted to update the maps since I relocated to an area where I’m not only unfamiliar but has also grown/changed rapidly in recent years and found the maps to be incorrect pretty frequently. I’ve had my 2014 Mazda 3 s touring since summer 2016.
