How do I install the map update via the SD card?

Complete agree. It literally should be one page. Hell, if they really wanted to monetize this they could just sell an SD card with the required files on it. If they are expecting people to find it, then make it easy. Amazing how issues like this exist in 2019. It's not like it's 1999...

I should have said that I tried that, but it kept failing, something to do with "xxxxx is a folder" or similar. Given that the downloader also said you can download to disk and copy the files across, that is what I just tried. I tried formatting the sd card as FAT32 and exFAT, the only thing I didn't try is to download from a Windows machine, but surely that doesn't make a difference?
Are you saying that what I have done simply won't work?

Is everyone doing this on Windows or are there some Mac users too? Not that it should make a difference with Java...

Yep, just done it again from the top, downloaded the javascript executable, fresh download to a freshly formatted sd card using a temp directory on my hard drive. Whilst it said it was successful, I just have Data and Meta on the SD card, nothing else. I haven't tried it in the car yet, will do so later, but not optimistic given that there is nothing in the root directory for the MMI to read..

Hope this helps.

That is exactly what I did yesterday and that is exactly what my SD card root looks like. Q7 is still at the dealer for coatings but will try the install when I pick it up.

I updated through SD?USB before but for some reason what I downloaded wasn't the final version since online one still said there were updates available.
Unfortunately I can never apply to WA/OR map update online since it always get stuck on 2nd package download.

That is very odd, we are kinda rural but have a 65 mpbs home cable connection and no issues downloading at all. It took around an hour or a bit more with the Java downloader. Everything, including the downloader, was downloaded direct to the SD card. Actual update in vehicle took around 45 minutes. I am in Oregon and it seems to have given me that data as well. I used freshly exFAT formatted Lexar Platinum II 200x SDXC 64 mb that was leftover from my vacation DSLR photos if that matters...
