I did the upgrade from v26 and it said System is Uptodate! after about 20secs. But I can't see the Perspective mode. I've gone into the Service mode in Settings by holding the Menu button down but there is no menu or submenu with anything about Perspective. It's as if it thinks the v27 disc is no higher than the v26 and that there is nothing to upgrade. I'm in Australia BTW.

Also what version should it be saying in Settings? Any help would be great.

v27 should display as 4-1/70. Do you have an MkIV/DVD based Nav system or an earlier type of CD based drive?

You have an MkIII Nav drive, and v27 is only for the MkIV DVD Nav drive.

3-1/63 is the most current software for your specific drive.

Cheers for that, I did a bit more digging on the site and came to the same conclusion. I also saw the Mark III can be swapped with a Mark IV one so that might be something to look at.

Damn right, cousin! I just did that myself not 3 weeks ago and MAN! What a difference! Totally worth it, and you can sell your old MkIII on ebay once you swap it.

Stick around if you need anything else, lots of helpful people on this forum.

I've had Perspective on my 745 with v26 for some time now. I guess maybe v26 doesnt put perspective on all drives? I know my 745 has a navi02 or navi03 drive, CD based upgraded to DVD by dealer a couple weeks ago.
