Cannot update C4 2021 firmware with Citroen Update application

Post by citroen-enjoyer »

Hello there!

I am sorry in advance if this is a wrong place to ask, as it might be a completely Citroen-side problem, but I have already tried updating in a dealership in my country (eastern Europe) and they were unable to do so but they say that the update exists.

I have been trying to update the firmware and navigation in my car, but for some reason both 'Citroen Update' app and psa-update CLI (https://github.com/zeld/psa-update) fail to find any update for my VIN.

It seems like Citroen Update is unable to find anything for any of 5 different C4 2021+ cars I tested, but easily finds the update for a random C3.

Here is what I have pulled from a car:

Code: Select all

Package: ovip-int-firmware-version
Version: 42.03.31.32_NAC-r0
Status: install user installed
Architecture: armv7a
Installed-Time: 579

Package: map-eur
Version: 9.0.0-r0
Status: install ok half-installed
Architecture: armv7a
Does anybody know the way to fix that? It has an impact on a lot of new C4s. Can't say if all of them or only the ones tested.

For NAC Wave 4 systems:

44.06.44.22_NAC-r0 is the latest available Firmware (released about Dec 2022).
14.0.0-r0 is the latest mapping version.

Have you tried to update the files manually (one by one) by downloading the individual files. The combined updates can sometimes be troublesome.

Hey Marc,

Thank you for your reply. I did not try that yet.
Using Citroen Update tool is kind of how it should work, right?
So I sent requests to the developers at https://developer.groupe-psa.com/inc/ and https://developer.groupe-psa.io/.
This issue affects all C4s I tried.

I can download 44.06.44.22_NAC-r0 pretty easily along with private key, thanks to this repo https://github.com/ludwig-v/psa-nac-fir ... ngineering,
but maybe you could point me in a direction where I can get maps and what additional files are needed for them?
For firmware as well, if there is a better place.

I will definitely do so if the proper way fails.

Thank you for your help!

I have updated both firmware and cartography using the links you sent. Still wish that Citroen Update would work though.

I think we can consider the matter closed.

Check the Citroen Update Application - they may have just updated it.
