Re: My Vauxhall app

Sounds about right. Disappointing really, but not surprising.

My Vauxhall app

Seems like this has been updated twice weekly for the last few months and yet it still doesn't work consistently... For me, anyway.

Does anyone actually rely on it?

Re: firmware/satnav updates

Like the My Vauxhall app itself, the Opel /, Vauxhall app is a hit and miss affair at best. Absolute disgrace that such basic applications should be allowed onto the app stores. Not fit for purpose. That said, the latest Map update downloaded and copied to a 32gb Kingston Traveller drive today after...

Re: Vauxhall App technical fault

It's NEVER worked for me. Atrocious excuse for an app. Hope you get it sorted though.

Re: Door trims squeaky

I've had our 21 plate Grandland for a few months now and cannot believe the level of road noise. Dealer says the doors are fine.

TomTom software update

Hi. I've totally given up on trying to get the Vauxhall or Opel apps to download the SatNav software.

Someone mentioned they download the update directly from the TomTom website. Does anyone have the link, and can confirm it works?

Thanks.

Hi folks. I'm Martin, from West Lothian. I found this forum while searching for hints on how to carry out a firmware update on my 21 reg Grandland X Griffin. We just traded up from Crossland, having underestimated how big three grandkids could grow. After a week I'm happy enough with the car, althou...

Re: SAT NAV UPDATES AND SCREEN SIZE

I used the Vauxhall app to check for updates and had it send me the link to the actual files (without using the Vauxhall Update app). I then just copied the files and the license to a USB drive. Worked OK.

Re: Satnav and Infotainment system update

Well, whatever you do, don't use the Vauxhall / Opel update app. The download takes forever and then it can't transfer more than 10% of the file to the USB drive.

Download the zip file and manually copy the license key and the files across.
