As noted, the link to the upgrade does not work. I would like to find a place where I can understand exactly how the DVDs etc. and the navigation system work; especially what the updates bring. Mine is a 2004 E64 with the Mark IV system. I read a lot of stuff but can't tell if the comments will apply to my system as a lot of them are older systems. The Navteq site wants to sell a update for $199, which seems to be a lot as I upgraded my Garmin for a lot less than that. I like what I have in the 325, but like some of the features of the Garmin a little better. I can use any help available.

Yes. You'll need to recode your navigation system with an I-BUS hardware kit and the geocoder application available somewhere in this forum. The piece of software can change the navigation system between euro and usa mode (not relevant), the language packs shown, amongst other nice stuff.

I have a similar problem (UK vs. US mode) and the dealer will fix it for me if I can point him in the right direction of how to do this. I know the dealer needs to hook up one of their systems, but which one? Are there instructions available I could give them or point them toward?

Yes, I know they should know how to do this, but they were very confused when I tried to get them to do this; they insisted that it must be part of the upgrade to 29.1 since they upgraded another car and it did the same things (no spash screen, distances in yards instead of feet, etc).

Got V29.9.10. from BMW. Main difference is that in the top right hand corner of the screen you get a pointer and the distance to your next turn off. Plus it seems to reroute faster.
cost of the upgrade €0.00
