Yup..thats what I get..you are trying to do a Bluetooth update?

Yes. All connected fine but it will not search the contacts. I can scroll through but when I select A-Z search it does not narrow the contacts down even when exact input is keyed in.

It’s not been updated since 2011

Absolute star. Thank you.

It says no USB with software. I have a 2GB FAT32 clean drive with no folders only the .bin. Any ideas please?

I think you place the bin file in the root directory of the usb formatted fat 32 then plug it into the usb port in the centre

That is what I have done. Just wondering if there is a max size of usb.

Fail in this I will assign my top six contacts to buttons.

Maybe the underlying h/w is not suitable

I will try and set it all up using a windows PC in case it’s Mac related.

All miner issues. Love the car.
