Audi MMI 3G High and MMI 3G Plus systems used in North American vehicles have their own navigation map database, separate from the European and Rest of World releases.
For compatible North American MMI 3G systems, the 6.24.0 navigation database with Audi part number 8R0060884JE is the map package currently offered for USA, Canada and Mexico.
This page is specifically about the North American 6.24.0 navigation map update for compatible Audi MMI 3G High and MMI 3G Plus systems.
It is not a firmware update.
Quick facts:
Map version: 6.24.0
Audi part number: 8R0060884JE
Region: North America / NAR
Countries: USA, Canada, Mexico
MMI systems: MMI 3G High and MMI 3G Plus
Update type: Navigation maps
Firmware: Separate from the map package
Activation: May be required depending on the MMI system and package
What Is Audi MMI Map Version 6.24.0?
6.24.0 is a North American navigation database release for compatible Audi MMI 3G High and MMI 3G Plus systems.
The corresponding Audi map part number is:
8R0060884JE
This package contains navigation map data for:
USA
Canada
Mexico
It should not be confused with European MMI 3G maps such as:
6.36.0 / 8R0051884KL
The region is important.
A North American MMI should use the navigation database intended for its region unless the complete MMI system has been intentionally converted to another region.
6.24.0 Is a Map Update, Not Firmware
One of the most common mistakes is confusing the navigation database with MMI firmware.
For example:
6.24.0 / 8R0060884JE
= North American navigation maps
HNav_US_K0133_3_D1
= MMI 3G High firmware
HN+_US_AU3G_K0942_6
= MMI 3G Plus HN+ firmware
HN+R_US_AU_K0942_3
= MMI 3G Plus HN+R firmware
Firmware controls the MMI system itself.
The 6.24.0 package updates the navigation database.
Installing the maps does not automatically update the firmware.
Which MMI Systems Support 6.24.0?
The 6.24.0 North American navigation database is intended for compatible:
MMI 3G High
and:
MMI 3G Plus
systems.
The easiest way to identify the exact platform is to check the complete software version displayed in the MMI.
MMI 3G High – HNav_US
MMI 3G High normally uses software beginning with:
HNav_
North American units normally use:
HNav_US_
An example is:
HNav_US_K0133_3_D1
This is firmware, not the navigation map version.
The dedicated 6.24.0 map product for compatible MMI 3G High systems is:
MMI 3G Plus – HN+_US
One MMI 3G Plus family used in North American Audi vehicles can be identified by:
HN+US
A common firmware branch is:
HN+US_AU3G
One current firmware example is:
HN+_US_AU3G_K0942_6
Again, K0942_6 is the firmware version.
The navigation database remains:
6.24.0 / 8R0060884JE
MMI 3G Plus map product:
MMI 3G Plus – HN+R_US
Another MMI 3G Plus branch found in North American vehicles uses:
HN+R_US_
A current firmware example is:
HN+R_US_AU_K0942_3
This branch is commonly found in selected Audi A6, A7, A8 and Q3 vehicles.
Do not assume that HN+ and HN+R firmware packages are interchangeable simply because both systems can use the same regional navigation database.
The complete software train must always be checked.
How to Check Which MMI System You Have
Before downloading or installing 6.24.0, check the complete MMI software version.
Do not identify the MMI only by:
Audi model
production year
screen size
control panel
vehicle generation
Similar Audi models can use different infotainment hardware.
Use our identification guide:
You can also enter the complete software version here:
Examples of useful version information include:
HNav_US_P0110_D1
HNav_US_K0133_3_D1
HN+_US_AU3G_P0726
HN+_US_AU3G_K0942_6
HN+R_US_AU_P0733
HN+R_US_AU_K0942_3
Always use the complete train rather than only the final number.
Audi MMI 3G High 6.24.0 Maps
If the MMI software begins with:
HNav_US_
you most likely have a North American MMI 3G High system.
The dedicated navigation package is:
Audi MMI 3G High
North America
Map version 6.24.0
Part number 8R0060884JE
Product:
Before installing the maps, verify whether your current firmware is suitable for the target navigation package.
A current North American MMI 3G High firmware option is:
HNav_US_K0133_3_D1
Firmware:
Audi MMI 3G Plus HN+ 6.24.0 Maps
If your software begins with:
HN+US_AU3G
you have an HN+ family MMI 3G Plus system.
One current firmware version is:
HN+_US_AU3G_K0942_6
Firmware:
The compatible North American navigation package remains:
6.24.0 / 8R0060884JE
Maps:
Audi MMI 3G Plus HN+R 6.24.0 Maps
If the current software begins with:
HN+R_US_
you are dealing with another MMI 3G Plus branch.
A current firmware option for compatible systems is:
HN+R_US_AU_K0942_3
Firmware:
Do not install HN+ firmware on HN+R or vice versa without a verified procedure.
The navigation database may be shared, but the firmware platforms are different.
Complete Firmware + Map Bundles
If your current firmware is old, a complete package containing firmware, maps and the required activation files may be easier than updating each component separately.
MMI 3G High / HNav_US
Bundle:
MMI 3G Plus / HN+_US
Bundle:
MMI 3G Plus / HN+R_US
Bundle:
Choose the bundle according to the complete MMI train, not only the Audi model.
Previous North American MMI 3G Map Releases
Several older North American navigation releases existed before 6.24.0.
Historical releases covered by older MMIUpdates articles include:
2019/2020 – 8R0051884GB
2020 – earlier North American MMI 3G High / Plus map release
6.22.1 – 8R0051884HG
6.24.0 – 8R0060884JE
Older release pages have been consolidated into this page so users searching for previous versions can reach the current North American MMI 3G map information.
We intentionally do not assign an unverified part number to the 2020 entry if the exact release identification is not available.
Do I Need to Install Older Map Versions First?
Usually, navigation databases do not need to be installed sequentially.
For example, you generally do not need to install:
2019/2020
then:
2020
then:
6.22.1
before installing:
6.24.0
Map updates are different from firmware update paths.
The important factors are:
MMI generation
region
current firmware
target navigation package
activation requirements
Always follow the instructions supplied with the exact package.
Do I Need to Update Firmware Before 6.24.0?
Possibly, but not universally.
If the MMI is running very old firmware, a firmware update may be required or recommended before installing a newer navigation database.
However, there is no rule that every North American Audi must be updated to the highest possible firmware first.
Check the complete current version.
Common current firmware targets include:
MMI 3G High:
HNav_US_K0133_3_D1
MMI 3G Plus HN+:
HN+_US_AU3G_K0942_6
MMI 3G Plus HN+R:
HN+R_US_AU_K0942_3
The correct target depends on the exact existing branch.
Does 6.24.0 Require Activation?
Depending on the MMI system and package, the navigation database may require activation after installation.
Map activation should be treated as a separate process from:
firmware installation
map file installation
Green Menu activation
Installing the files successfully does not always mean the navigation licence has already been activated.
Use the activation method supplied with the correct package.
How to Install Audi MMI 3G 6.24.0 Maps
The general update workflow is:
- Check the complete MMI software version.
- Identify whether the system is HNav, HN+ or HN+R.
- Confirm that the unit is configured for North America.
- Check firmware compatibility.
- Download and fully extract the map package.
- Prepare the SD card according to the supplied instructions.
- Copy the update files to the correct directory level.
- Start the map update from the MMI.
- Do not interrupt the update.
- Complete activation if required.
- Restart the MMI.
- Verify the new navigation database version.
For the detailed MMI 3G High / Plus map installation guide:
Preparing the SD Card
Incorrect SD card preparation is one of the most common reasons an Audi MMI cannot detect an update.
Make sure that:
the archive has been fully extracted,
multipart archives have been extracted correctly,
the update files are placed at the required directory level,
and the SD card follows the formatting requirements of the package.
A common mistake looks like this:
SD CARD
└── 6.24.0
└── update files
when the MMI expects the actual update files directly in the root directory.
If the MMI cannot find the update:
Keep the Vehicle Voltage Stable
A navigation map update can take a considerable amount of time.
Make sure the vehicle electrical system remains stable.
For long update procedures, suitable external battery support is recommended.
Do not:
disconnect the battery,
remove the SD card,
force restart the MMI,
or interrupt the system while data is being written.
Which Countries Are Included?
6.24.0 / 8R0060884JE is a North American navigation package.
It covers:
United States
Canada
Mexico
It is not the correct package for:
Europe
Australia
New Zealand
Middle East
South Africa
Singapore
or other ROW regions.
Is 6.24.0 the Same as European 6.36.0?
No.
These are separate regional navigation databases.
North America:
6.24.0
8R0060884JE
Europe:
6.36.0
8R0051884KL
Do not compare the version numbers as if they belong to one global sequence.
A higher European map number does not mean it is suitable for a North American MMI.
Can I Install European 6.36.0 Maps on a US Audi?
Not as a normal navigation update.
If the MMI is configured for North America, installing European maps alone does not perform a complete US-to-Europe conversion.
A proper conversion may require changes to:
firmware region
navigation configuration
radio settings
languages
licensing
other software parameters
Region conversion is a separate procedure.
US to Europe MMI Conversion
If your Audi was originally built for North America but is now used in Europe, do not simply install the European map package.
For MMI 3G systems, use a dedicated conversion procedure.
Guide:
The conversion must match the exact MMI family.
Does 6.24.0 Add Apple CarPlay or Android Auto?
No.
6.24.0 is a navigation map database.
It does not activate:
Apple CarPlay
Android Auto
Bluetooth streaming
new MIB2 features
MMI 3G High and Plus cannot become MIB2 simply by installing newer maps or firmware.
For older MMI 3G systems, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto normally require a separate retrofit interface.
Example:
Is 6.24.0 for MIB2?
No.
MMI 3G and MIB2 use different navigation map families.
The 6.24.0 / 8R0060884JE package is for compatible MMI 3G High and MMI 3G Plus systems.
North American MIB2 systems such as:
MHI2_US_
MHI2Q_US_
use a different navigation database.
For North American MIB2 maps:
What If My Software Starts With HNav_US?
That normally indicates MMI 3G High.
Examples include:
HNav_US_P0110_D1
HNav_US_P0119_D1
HNav_US_K0133_3_D1
Use the MMI 3G High version of the 6.24.0 map package.
What If My Software Starts With HN+_US?
That normally identifies an MMI 3G Plus HN+ system.
Examples include software in the:
HN+US_AU3G
family.
Use the MMI 3G Plus version of the map package and verify the exact firmware branch before updating.
What If My Software Starts With HN+R_US?
That identifies another MMI 3G Plus family.
Use a package intended for HN+R and verify the existing firmware before installation.
Do not assume that HN+ and HN+R firmware are interchangeable.
What If My Software Starts With BNav?
This page is not intended for BNav.
BNav identifies MMI 3G Basic.
North American availability and update paths for MMI 3G Basic differ from MMI 3G High and Plus.
Do not install an HNav/HN+ navigation package on a BNav unit.
How to Confirm 6.24.0 Was Installed
After the update is complete, open Version Information in the MMI.
Check the navigation database.
Confirm that the navigation version matches the expected North American 6.24.0 release.
Do not rely only on:
different map graphics,
new road data,
or the fact that the update completed without an error.
Common Problems
MMI does not detect the update
Check:
archive extraction,
SD card preparation,
folder structure,
and compatibility.
Update device unavailable
Verify the media and package-specific formatting instructions.
Maps install but navigation is unavailable
Navigation activation may still be required.
Firmware version did not change
That is normal.
6.24.0 updates the map database, not the firmware.
I have a European firmware version
Do not install North American maps unless the system has been correctly converted to the North American region.
I have MHI2 or MHI2Q
You have MIB2, not MMI 3G. Use the dedicated MIB2 map package.
