If you've Satellite Navigation in your car this is a great heads up. Tomtom has just released a new update for its TomTom Go. It's usable if the version number on your TomTom GO is lower than 5.440. Unfortunately it can't be used if you've a TomTom One or TomTom Rider

I am a fee charging WoM Mortgage broker.
I now no longer give information and opinion within the Mortgage boards, because a number of posters who, having approached me professionally, agreed my fee-which has been been made very clear at the outset, taken my advice (normally cancelling a [home visit] meeting at short notice) have then approached one of the fee-free brokers on here to arrange the very same deal I have advised.
Whilst I totally concur with the ethos of "money saving"- abusing the goodwill of a professional who provides a quality service is taking it too far! :mad:

Nice tip Stanmoresaver,
Just downloaded mine, thanks, I probably needed it cause when I drove up north at the w/e, the M18 (top of M1/A1m) was showing as the middle of a field :rotfl:you know when you're getting older - the wife says, "let's go upstairs and make love" and you reply, "I can't do both" !!0 -
Thanks Stanmoresaver,
I have just got a new GO 700 and the version is 5410, so it needs the new update, always assuming i dont make a C--- up with the downloading.0 -
I have Tom Tom Go 300. How much does the update cost? and is in any better than the 4.5 version?0

Its a free update and should work with the 300. Just follow the link stated above.If you found my comment helpful, please click the 'Thanks' button below :T0 -
When I originally bought my 300, I had some trouble in downloading the lastest maps even with a fully charged battery. Although TomTom sell a mains charger, which ensures the process works, it's not exactly a bargain and I found that my local "motor bits" shop could supply a 240v to 12V cigarette device for around half the money.
Also, anyone who bought a TomTom from Halfords at Xmas and still can't get a kit from them to install it in a second car might try their local Tesco's - since xmas, my local branch has not only stocked the machines, but also a good range of accessories.0 -
Thanks very much for this tip Stamoresaver. I bought a TomTom700 last weekend as I had a lot of travelling around to do this week & I really don't know how I used to cope without it!
Looks like even though I just bought it, the version is old so I'll be trying your update link myself.
Thanks again!Sad because you don't know what to do? :sad: Comping question? Take a look in the Comping Guide to find out

Just to let you know the up dates are only software up dates not map updates so you will still end up in a field :mad:
Think you have to pay ££££s and buy latest maps to get out of fields
Also if you have card reader up date it using that (dont need mains or 12volts then )0 -
Hi - sorry to be so dim .... but I too have a tom tom 300 - and if new maps are not included - what exactly do you get in the update - please could you say it not in techno speak - I have only just mastered the tom tom!! It is wonderful by the way - but I dont entirely trust it ... I too have - or could have - landed in a field ... so I always try and check the route - if poss before!! Thank you. Maggie0
