I for one am impressed that they have such commitment to keeping the maps up to date. On my previous BMWs you would have to pay £49 a time for an update. Once a month is keen, but the amount of in car nav's I've had where I've been driving through a 'field' 6 years after it became the busiest carriage way in the area

I have same issue with 32gb formatted in Windows 10, always worked previously, now says not enough space. Has anyone actually been able to get the latest update and if so, how much space is it actually taking on usb stick?
Hmm, sounds like you need to delete some partitions etc. This is the trouble with the Fat32 -32GB limit...latest update is 28.6 hence close a lot of devices capacity. And In control only allows fat32...
Fortunately i have 64GB so just formatted as Fat32 now but is a pain.

The maximum partition size for FAT32 is 2TB, with a limitation of that file system being maximum single file size of 4GB. Windows 8 and Windows 10 aren't all that helpful when it comes to formatting in FAT32. I had to download a freeware app, although it all worked fine.
I have a 64GB drive just for map updates and a 128GB for my son's movies. According to the InControl documentation, 128GB USB drives are the biggest you can go.

Nope, normally one road in, one out, sometimes the same, but I hate getting reminders on screen, plus I keep thinking if I go further afield it might be useful and then what happens if I miss an update, will it be more bother to do? -

Correct I meant that Microsoft has a 32gb limit to push folk to NTFS hence the need for freeware like AOMEI . sorry i wasn't clearer.

It's plausible that your USB stick has a 'hidden' partition for recovery purposes or just has on it some utilities that came with it (they often do). Either of these situations could use up enough space to prevent you having sufficient left.
If it were me, I would just format it again and start afresh. If you're on Windows 8 or 10, the application LancsLad mentioned is very straightforward and will allow you to format the drive using the appropriate formatting type (FAT32).
Edit: Sorry, you did say you have 30GB left, which would rule out my theory. Anyway, I would format and start again

I’ve already tried to reformat and there are no additional partitions listed
