Twice a year, usually May and November. Don't expect them to be totally up-to-date however. Garmin (which uses the same HERE mapping source data) update up to four times a year, and even when the updates coincide, Sensus is still behind. I know this from the many junction changes which are currently taking place on the A1 and a new road near Lancaster.

Also be aware that the last update significantly reduced the amount of detail that is displayed at and above 0.5ml zoom - all you now get is A roads around my way which means the screen is blank 90% of the time

This is typical what I see
The problem is that when you zoom in to 0.2 then you lose all relationship to what is around

Tkank you, I did the November update, I live near Leyburn so suffer the same A1 changes as you do. I also have a Garmin which is wel in front of sensus in our area.I think both are pretty useless in rural locations withregards to route planning, my wifes tomtom knocks the socks off both systems with regards to route selection and particularly traffic and ETA.

SatNav Map Updates
I am trying to update the mapping on my 2013 V40 SE Lux Nav. I have followed the online instructions and successfully downloaded the maps to an empty USB stick. When plugging in the USB stick into the car, it's recognised and the maps are there to download. Estimated time 2hrs 45min. On clicking ok a message appears to enter a 'licence code'. No one seems to know what this is. I've asked Volvo UK and they say the dealer has it. My Volvo dealer doesn't know what it is and feels it maybe related to the old cd disc updates or a software update. Has anyone on the forum had the same problem and knows what this code is?

To enable map updates via USB you need software update to infotainment done by the dealer, around £60 or independent with vida online
