Very useful instructions manual
I have done the same in my old FIAT Bravo several times, with some issues during updates.
But this time it was a complete success, no issues at all, the Mazda update guide which i sent together with the update programme, is very accurate, and very easy to follow👍
Total time about 55 mins.
I purchased 70.00.367 EU from Navi-world Friday evening at about 5pm. The software arrived quicker than expected via email about three hours later. I wasn't complaining as I didn't expect it till Monday now that we were in to the weekend.
The email had two files. One 2.2gb file for the software & one instruction pdf. I formatted a USB stick simply copied the file I downloaded from the email on to it & went out to the car to follow the instructions.
The instructions come with a one page & multi page version. You can follow the one page which is practically the same but to make sure I was getting complete detail I used my phone to follow the large detailed version & ensure every step was followed.
After you've played with a menu or two for a few moments it was simply the case of plugging the USB in & letting the car do the rest.
The whole process took around 45 minutes & I was nervous as at times the bar would stop & hover. E.g. At 37%, 78% & the most nerve racking wait at 98% but apparently this is perfectly normal hence why the process takes nearly 50 minutes. My car is a manual transmission & the engine needs to be off while it's working so I had to pump the clutch pedal once every so often just to ensure the cars power didn't go off during the update. For automatics it advises to pump the break pedal instead.
Anyway long story short the update went without a hitch other than the wait they advise you of. My mazda is now running 70.00.367 & I'm over the moon. I've already ordered an android auto module to go along with it. Thanks Navi World!
