I need to update the maps for the Infotainment system but the link given fails
https://www.vauxhall.co.uk/discover/fac ... corsa.html

The manual also states it can be downloaded from My Vauxhall but I cant find any download link

On the Infotainment in the car, the screen asks for a mobile to be connected via a USB lead
After connecting that informs me that my 2yr Motorola is "Incompatible "

Can someone point me to a download link thats works

Hello.
For my 2024 Corsa I had to download and install a computer program called "opel_update.exe".
If you have access to a PC you can get it by logging in to your My Vauxhall account on a PC and following the links to download the above update program.
You will need lots of time - the upgrade takes many hours.
Good luck.

Hi, how long did it take you to to update your Corsa via the USB stick?
It's a 19gb download and 12gb write to the USB stick which took me just over an hour, I was wondering how long do I need to keep the engine running while it updates from the USB?
My Corsa is keyless and there is no way of locking the vehicle while the engine is running.

Sorry, I don't remember the exact time, I think it took roughly 30 minutes. Please note i deselected every Country except UK at the start of the in-car process. I can't imagine how long it would take if you missed that step and tried to update the World maps !!!
Good luck.
PS i waited until i was going on a 30 min journey b4 updating - I also didn't want to leave the car unlocked on the driveway.

The update in the car takes between an hour/an hour and 15 minuten. The car needs to be running (if only contact 'on', the engine will shut down automatically and the update will stop). You can drive while updating, only the multimedia screen is not usable and you will see a 'popup' indicating that the maps are being updated. You will see a warning on screen when it's done... Remove the usb, the system will reboot (no problem while driving) and it's done...
