Assuming you are in the U.S. (you don't list your location), map updates for MY2012-2015 can only be obtained and installed by an Audii dealer. Cost runs about $350-$400. Only facelift MY2016 with the new Nav Plus MMI with 4G LTE have the ability to download updates.

It's not up there any more. I'm guessing it was pulled to make way for the "2016" update.

Thanks for looking! I should've downloaded it when it was online!

Default Install maps

Does anyone know how to install the maps on the car? When I take the SD card out I have no maps. The car is a 2016 A6

Importing map update into the MMI
► Insert the SD card with the update files into
one of the MMI's SD card slots.
Select the following on the MMI:
► MENU button > Setup MMI > System update.
Or:
► MENU button > Settings > left control button
> System maintenance > System update.
► Select and confirm the source (SD1 or SD2).
► Select and confirm Start update.
The data in the navigation system will then be
updated; the status of the update procedure will
be shown on the infotainment display.
You can continue using the navigation system
while the update is being performed.
► To complete installation of the new maps, confirm
the update.
Your MMI will be restarted. If route guidance was
active, the navigation system will be briefly interrupted
and will then automatically resume operation
after the MMI is restarted. The updated
maps can now be used for navigation.
Note
– The update procedure on the MMI may take
up to two hours, depending on which map
update is selected. The update is interrupted
if the engine is switched off, for example,
but automatically resumes at the same
point when the vehicle is restarted.
– To ensure that the maps are updated correctly,
the SD card should not be removed
from the slot during a map update.
– When imported, the new map package overwrites
the map package stored on the MMI.
– The speech dialogue system is not available
while a map update is taking place.

2016 models and newer downloads by itself. At least mine does.

It downloads directly to the car only for the state that you have registered in myAudi. This may include some surrounding states. If you want the whole country or just some other states you have to download them from myAudi to an SD card and then install them in the car.

I did an update in the car. MMI Set Up and I updated it without any SD cards.

Were you able to update 50 States? I could only update CT (where I live) and a few of the surrounding states. I had to use the SD card for the rest.
