• PLEASE! It is VERY important that this area is not used for the discussion of technical issues with your Stinger. This section is for posting about regional-specific things like Stinger clubs, events, local vendor or dealer recommendations, KiaStinger.com member sightings, etcetera... In other words, I do NOT want people to need to scour through several different sections to find answers about their heads up display. That's why there's a section dedicated specifically to discussions like that. THANK YOU!

2019 Map Update now available online

That would be appreciated if they can do it
 
I was sent this from Kia today:

"The 2020 Update (V13) is currently scheduled to release in Q3 (Sep-Oct) of 2020. (We usually release our map updates around June each year).
We are very sorry for the delays in the release date due to the ongoing pandemic.
We are currently working to release our map updates biannually in the future.
Please keep an eye out for an official release date announcement from KIA Motors Australia."
Hi @FitR6 please note current advice on AU map updates.

Update - got it to work now, about 90% complete as we speak Was being blocked by firewall or antivirus. I called Kia Support on the number from the map-care website and they had no idea about anything. According to them there is no update available yet and wont be for another 2 months... I told them multiple times that I am looking at the update online and told them to go to the website, but they said that no one at Kia Australia knows about it so he couldnt help me. Really strange. But at least it seems to be working so far.
Are you that surprised that Kia Australia knew nothing? Lol. Look at their track record. :rolleyes:
 
Got to love how behind Australia is. We are waiting for V13 when V14 has been rolled out overseas.


Well at least we're not beta testing stuff
 
Hey All,
Anyone know how long it takes to get the confirmation email from mnsoft..
Registered with them on Thursday when I had my stinger delivered.

Or is it even worth bothering atm, as it reads from the thread there is no update yet

cheers

Hey team, sorry to be a newd, i purchased an ex Aussie write off (hail damage), a Hyundai i30 2018 PD Manual, and need to get my hands on the latest firmware and maps, for my car, from what I can tell, its maps are from 2017 the year it was manufactured.
Hyundai NZ always give me shit because its and import and want to charge me through the roof to get them.

Current Software

Software: PD.AUS.SOP.005.4.171123
Firmware: PD.AUS.0.5.226.171024.MICOM
NAVI APP: ST5_MID.AUS.HMC.171123.e4286237
Map: AUS.10.47.48.480.002.2

I also cant seem to figure out if there is a Drive Mode Button missing from my console. My car had eco in the centre part of my console for ages indicating it was in ECO mode, I tried a few things, to get it to turn off, and recently noticed it not there anymore. Can anyone shed any light?

Car is booked in for map update next Tuesday 17th, hopefully it’s a vast improvement.
