If and when you buy the service they will email you a new FSC code for 24 months worth of updates. Every time you download an update they will remind you of it just in case.

Yes it will. However if there is any need to further update it the updated code will be provided when you download the map update.

You can generate FSC codes yourself if you extract the FSC (you can extract it with e-sys) or I think vorph does lifetime FSC codes for fairly cheap, with which you'll just need to download the map updates from somewhere

I did this, and it's a piece of piss to do. You will need a 64 gb memory stick for the pro nav version.

I plan to use this service - my maps are from early 2014 and i just missed the over the air updates. Especially as I drive to Europe each year and prefer to have the latest. So I have been pleased this now exists as previously I think the dealer would charge c.£150 for a one-off update.
