Post code search is different on my new maps.

I have recently updated from an old Western Europe map to Western andCentral Europe v 830.2307. This was via a download .The post code search is now not the same. I tap in the full code, which then appears on the top line, but only the first part of the code appears underneath that and I then have to scroll down all the street options to select the one I want. Is this the norm now, or can I do something to get the search as it was before? Please answer as simply as you can and, if possible, please walk me through it if there is a solution. Oh, and by the way I think I have a problem with my card reader so can't do anything which might involve that.Thanks.

Sounds like you don't have the postcode data with your new map. Can you check and see whether there is a folder called "zip" on your TT, and whether it contains any files.

If not, you can copy the folder/files across from the Explorer backup you made before you updated the map (You did, didn't you?)

Go to "Oldboy's" web site by clicking Here where you will find a much newer postcode file set than that currently available from the TomTom download, these files will be better matched to your v8xx map - Mike
