  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

New Map v13.0 update available

Also, in the new 13.5 updated found that the USB UI and the Bluetooth UI are much different from the v13.

MUCH BETTER LOOKING! Plus, there are quick access links to the album and the artist of the song playing. Quick links to QLS - I guess they wanted to promote this :unsure:

I hope they continue with this new look for the rest of the components.

I also found that the car will now coast a ton more. Maybe the old system had an issue in telling the trans to coast but in ECO I coast almost every time I lift my foot off now. I don't think I ever got a COASTING message on the old firmware.

Lastly, as already mentioned, you get lane guidance even when not under navigation.

Certainly interesting. I’m a little surprised about the transmission changes since I wouldn't expect that to be part of a nav update.
 
There was a Coasting update last year performed during service for the earlier cars.

It's good to see though! Gets me wondering what else they can play with
 
I'm in MS. Same hot and humid weather. Damn humidity is a killer. A few years ago I was in Vegas and the temps were around 100. My friends from up north were dying. I was perfectly fine. Of course that's still hot but it's such a different feel. Not draining like here. It's no wonder we're so lazy in the south. Too damn hot and humid to do anything. Then in the winter it's such a change that we're literally freezing our asses off. Why the hell do I still live here...
I ask myself the same thing. Savannah sucks. But my job is so awesome. I get to work and fly on the ultimate in speed in luxury, Gulfstream airplanes. So, I suck it up and deal with summers.......

But since there is a COASTING flag set through the HMI they could make a change. Maybe there was a bug that wasn't really setting this flag in the trans control unit correctly. Just a thought.

I am not driving the car any differently and I never had it coast before. I even tried to get it to coast by lifting off on down side of hills and zip. Even on level ground I get COASTING messages now and can see the RPMs drop to idle.
 
After having the issue with the download I finally got an email from MapCare

Currently updating. I was hoping the half hour estimate was a huge abundance of caution, but this is taking a while
 
This is the error I got after pressing the update button.

I’m hoping the card they send me works. 🙏🏼

Just got my G70 and pretty sure it doesn't have the 13.5 update. So, how do I find what version I do have...the pathway, please. And, if there already is a SD card installed with the "old" map, where is that card located? Thanks.

Have you read the manual? Have you searched this forum?

Jeez man...put in an effort.

Go to this website. All the info you need is there

Ya' know, you're right. My map version is 11.something. Time for an update, but there is a problem. See my reply to post #172

Thanks. I had done that, and when I entered my VIN as part of the version request, got an alert stating that either I entered the wrong VIN, or I haven't registered. Both incorrect as I was registered and it was the correct VIN. Then called Genesis Connected. They confirmed the correctness of my registration/VIN, but the person helping couldn't come up with why I was being rejected by Mapsoft. So, she's calling out for more help from their next level. If it wasn't Memorial Day holiday and if we weren't in the almost middle of a terrible hurricane, I'd call the dealership to find out what's wrong. Will have to wait until Wednesday or Thursday, depending on how Dorian behaves.

If you read around a bit, you’ll find that mapnsoft does not register your vin for a long, long time. It’s standard operating procedure for them at this point
 
Just to let you know that the new map v13.0 from MapNSoft is available. Was anounced since early April but not available until this weekend, I ordered mine and received the SD card today, installed on my G70 in around 25 minutes. Lets see what improvements has over v12.5.
How do you order the new SD card ? I don’t think I’ve done any updates since I picked up the car in April so I should probably get on that

Thanks for the info. Care to say what a "long, long time" may be?
