Update - Audi Connect is working again and it was a breeze to send the Custom POI's via the "Send to vehicle" button!
All looks to be working perfectly

Is this possible for the SD card nav??
Unfortunately, if you haven’t got the advanced tech pack I don’t believe it’s possible. I’m not aware that the standard SD card based sat nav can store custom POI’s.hey guys - im just about to take delivery of a new 18 reg audi a3 with standard sat nav, can anyone advise how or if it comes with speed camera alerts on standard on new ones?
its my first audi and ive always had the camera alerts so hoping I can get it sorted
thanks folks
thanks for the quick reply bells - damn that's a shame really useful for my job having the speed alerts - always been standard on most cars ive had
so I cant even download those POI ones either to make it work
I stand corrected! I tried the normal process I use for my car with my Dad’s A3 that just has SD Nav and it didn’t seem to work but I’ll give it another go following these steps and see if I can get it workingI can confirm that you CAN have your custom POI installed with sd-nav. I have them. Here is a quick guide for you all:
This is a basic guide that will work with any type of POI...
1. Get a SD-card
2. Download and install POIbase-application into your pc, select AUDI navigation
https://www.poibase.com/en/download-poibase/
3. In the poibase-app Upload/Add your own custom POI gategory with a garmin/whatever -POI -file and add a POI-symbol you want to use with it
4. Export it to your SD-card
5. Plug the card into your car and select update from the MMI
6. Update will start and after that you can select your own Audi poi from the nav-menu to show on the screen.
7. Have a beer or cup of tea and congratulate yourself - job well done!
So assume i need the poi speed cameras database first
Are they all paid for now any free ones knocking around?
ive tried googling it but to no avail cant see any free at all just sends me to the paid sites, as I don't really know what im looking for lol - I don't mind paying at all but want to check its gonna work first and also I don't think I will get on with it without audio, as I never look at the nav unless Im lost just listen out to the commands
ive seen tomtom do a speed camera app which runs along side Bluetooth so that could be an option
cool cheers steve - yep im not bothered about paying 20 quid just want it too work with audio - without audio its pointless I may as well just use the tomtom app which works thro Bluetooth on the car anyways
would like to see some pics though that would be great just to get visual aspect of it all running thanks
For everyone using a USB Nav system,
I have had a quick "play" around with @mcaddy App using the source files and Visual Basic, It would appear that i have got it working again. However I will test this out tonight on me '16 Audi A3 with Tech Pack MMI later on tonight. I was able to bypass the download error by redirecting the download link to a more up to date Garmin POILoder package on the www.pocketgpsworld.com site, it now will download the UK "Consolidated By Type" package that gives you all the updated cameras till 01/08/2018.
After my tests later, if i get this to work i will post a dropbox link to the updated executable file, run like before with your username and password, select what cameras you wish to have then identify your SD card from the drop down menu. This is @mcaddy App and all credit goes to him, i have just updated some references.

Nice one @AWP that is awesome news. I will give this a go on my car this weekend.
Can you re-post the attachements, as they are erroring?
Works a treat for me especially with the 'arrival note'. Nice one @AWP
Excellent news! Have you got the FL RS3 ?
I have a PFL car and don't currently have arrival tones so that was a fear that wouldn't work, but thank you for your input
Bet ze Germans have outsources to ze Indians, who in my experience don't have a rush built into them. I heard a story that the Indian support from a big computer company took hours to respond when a bank was down in the UK. They thought it was one branch when in reality it was a major part of the banks UK storage that was offline.
do you know, I was wondering the very same thing myselfYou on the right forum buddy ?
Probably not, might not even be on the right website. I may have had another site open and thought I was posting on there. Senility setting in.You on the right forum buddy ?
Yes the AudiConnect site is still down.
Well, the PersonalPOI "myAudi Special destinations" section of it is down anyway.
Audi customer services have confirmed that ze Germans are aware it is down, but they are unable to give any indication of when it might be fixed.
Very frustrating, as this is a feature I was really looking forward to using.
Ha not going mad. replied to an earlier post in this thread. Then again I am probably losing it.Probably not, might not even be on the right website. I may have had another site open and thought I was posting on there. Senility setting in.
