trapdoor is on a distinguished road
As I understand it, the raw mapping data is released on a monthly cycle & is available to manufacturers to purchase. This info directly from Navteq after submitting a batch of corrections for the 2006-2 BMW release.

It is then up to the manufacturer which mapping dataset they choose to use/release, and the frequency of release. BMW seem to choose to release twice per year. BMW also never seem to release the very latest mapping dataset, though this could be down to time taken to package and release the data they have bought from Navteq (3 month lag time?)
