They might, one thing for sure is that theri communication about it will be god awful. You'll always have the satisfaction of knowing when you turn it on that it came for free though!

You're a braver man than I! Fair play. My car has nav on it though and I'm part luddite so maybe won't try it myself.

dont your are better of not,2 many probs on the forum from people with it. Not worth the hassle.

I took the plunge and updated my non nav 192 corolla hatch. It took ages.... I would say 45mins to an hour and rebooted several times I would say close to 10. One part it got stuck at 50% but after 5-10 mins it progressed, I was getting worried at that stage! I kept the ignition on at all times and didn't leave the car. Looks very nice. Will have a play around with Android Auto later after my nerves have calmed down

Well how's it behaving? Any photos of it in operation?

A few lads reporting success with installing even with Nav here;

There have been reports from across Europe that this update has bricked some radio units.

The files that were leaked were not final and complete, I would be advising people to hold off the extra couple of weeks until it comes via the official channels.

Agreed, I definitely am waiting anyway since my car has nav.

Looks like Toyota are on to it.....pity they aren't so smart with the actual update

gotapaininmy · 22-09-2020 4:45pm

Lot of stuff on the official Toyota UK blog about update being released in October.

It's in the comments section at the bottom of the article.

In fairness to Toyota UK they responded to every query in the comments section, Toyota Ireland? crickets and tumbleweed

I've been trying to get an answer from Toyota Ireland on this topic since March this year - Emails, phone calls and even tried Twitter. Zero response. In fairness to Tagh Riordan, they did reply saying 'it was defenitely in the pipeline' but said it was really up Toyota Ireland. Frustrating to say the least and does not inspire confidence in the brand in Ireland. The usual cowboy attitude - "We have your money now f#!k off!"

This is comical. You’d swear they were trying to activate invisibility cloak or something.

Hopefully its made its way down to the rest of the country so.

I’d imagine so, I’m in Westmeath so I wouldn’t have thought there’s anything special about us! Laughable thing is that Toyota Ireland aren’t promoting the fact that you can upgrade?!
