Will it now be able to pronounce the letter 'A' correctly? I don't know why mine doesn't, as the one I had on a hire car while mine was being worked on pronounced the 'A' properly.

Once a year at service time is surely often enough. The world's roads are not terraformed and redone every couple of months. I've got sat-nav systems that haven't been updated in five years and when they meet a new road layout, I just follow the signs until I get back to a previously mapped old road. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

I now only do a full update about twice a year, prior to driving outside the U.K.
Some changes in the road networks have taken place in the Netherlands, Belgium and in and around the local France/Luxemburg/Germany areas. Other than that, I just update OTA North West Europe, every now and again. Yesterday, after the failed update for Voice Command, I checked for an OTA update for NWE and none was available. Version 1230 seems to be the latest? tem.

The car had a software update at the dealer in august, but neither maps or voice control were updated. I updated maps myself, but voice-control is still the original version from june 2017.

Initial tests on the default system as supplied (yet to check the version/apply update) was dreadful - the interpretation of the address given was not even close - now I'm not the greatest orator - but really it wasn't even close. When it tried to find a new road called "Cancel", I nearly gave up!
Is there a defined/preferred way of giving an address? Currently I've found the road and city only (no numbers) works best - and speak quite slowly (much slower then Google/Alexa). Then give, when prompted, the house number. Even that works best as individual - Four Three, not forty-three. Definitely need some work!
