Interesting to see two of you confirming it can be done without the engine running. I don't remember where from I got the opposite instructions? The manual? Having the engine run idle for half an hour is even against the law in many places.

Doesn't running the R-Link for half an hour without the engine on run down the battery?
I ran the radio for about 45 minutes by leaving a door open and got a "Low Battery" warning.

All the instructions I've seen mention having the engine running, so that's what I do. On or off it's not ideal. Always has been, and always will be, a bloody daft way of going about it. Exhaust fumes, petrol consumption versus depleting your battery.

If it's a healthy battery, it should last way more than an hour or two. For the map update, it's no big deal. You can't do a mess. If it's a firmware update, it's another thing. Than all must be by the book and engine must be running.
