I checked my cars download centre today and it had a new map available, so I clicked on download. The screen now shows that it’s downloading (10% so far), but it says version 1363, not 1380. Or am I reading this wrong 🤪

I always download via the PC to a 64GB USB stick...

I appreciate you can install using USB. I’ve used that method on my previous Volvos. I was hoping someone could tell me what map version 1363 is, and why it would be downloading that if 1380 is the latest version.

Once installed, how can you check what version you have?

Go to the download centre on the Sensus, click on the maps button. You see the list of maps, click on the one you want to check. The installed version number is shown beneath the miniature map.

Note that during download and installation you will see the old version number here. The version number only changes once the new map is fully installed.

Thanks Rifleman. That’s exactly where I’m going wrong. I thought the version under the map logo is showing what it’s downloading, not what version I have now.

Why on earth would they design a screen that tells me that a new map is being downloaded then under that an image of an old version without any explanation? It would be very helpful to idiots like me if it said something like “Map currently installed version 1363. Map downloading version 1380”. I don’t think they try very hard to make the tech user friendly.

You’re welcome. Agree the Sensus software leaves a lot to be desired. I can’t see it getting much better in its current form as I imagine Volvo will be concentrating their efforts on the newer Android version going forward…
