Hi Guys.
Mine is the RNS 310 I believe.
How do I go about updating it to latest firmare on that system and can I use 2020 maps on it?
Thanks
@Jimbobcook Your up!

Check here for getting the latest firmware, you'll need to find out the version before getting the correct files (should all be in that thread), then for maps you should need something like this... link it's the newer version of the one I got but from a different seller...Hi Guys.

You dont need mapcare. If your infotainment system has that sd card 6PO919866 in either of the card slots, that's where your sat-nav gets all its info from. That company I mentioned supplies cards that (if activation was ever required) simply slots into your sd card port. Give it a wee bit of time to update anything in the head unit's firmware, then you are good to go!
Think of it like this - your dealership is preying on your ignorance of how this works, so they exploit you by telling you nonsense, such as:
you'll need to leave your car with them, as it's "very technical".
Its expensive because your head unit is actually a small computer, and needs reprogrammed, etc...
Worst case - the card doesn't work, so you send it back for a refund. What's to lose?
Does anyone have a phone number for satnav stores?
I think they are only contactable by email. Send them a request, with as much info as you have, and they'll advise going forward. Any info they need from you to further supplying you with the correct map will be requested by them. They are a helpful bunch at SatNavStore.Does anyone have a phone number for satnav stores?
I’ve been trying to contact them by email with no response. Possibly closed due to covid?
Hi, did you find there was a rubber insert in the sod slot ?I'm on 6po919866 v.12 now. Just plugged into the sd card slot, and after a few seconds it was up and running. If you order from the web address I posted (www.satnavstore.com), they supply oem cards. The current price should be around the £35 mark.

I have just bought an sd card and have the same message. Wasn’t sure whether to go for the use sd option or install? I’m guessing it’s the install option right?Now to kill 2 hours when I'm not allowed to drive anywhere...

Personally I'd go with install. It takes a couple of hours, but then you can take the SD card out. The other option just reads the map data directly off the card - so you have to leave it in 24/7 and I imagine it'd be slower. Whilst installing, you can turn the engine off and take the keys out as many times as you need.
