Z4 nav OS upgrade

I'm new here. Read the Nav forum carefully, but couldn't find reffernec to Z4. I know this is X3 world, but Z4 still a BMW .

I have 2003 Z4 Roadster with Navigation Profesional.
Will v29.1 upgrade work on it?

Another Q. If I want to have 2007 map. Which map version I need to download? The high version will not work?

Thanks for help.

What does your current nav DVD say on it? Is it HIGH or PROFESSIONAL? As I understand it, the Z4 has the same Nav setup as the X3 (ie, a Mk4 Navicomp, a flip-up widescreen and a CID in place of the usual Bordmonitor and Bm54 radio pack).

If it is a HIGH DVD, then you can load V29.1 (or anything from V27) to get perspective mode.

If you go into the Nav setup page, what is the version info at the top of the screen?

On DVD it's Europe High.
SW 4-1/12 in the set up screen.

Which version it is, and do I need upgrade?

You need to upgrade the OS - you should have 4-1/91 which is V29.1 - you can find the CD image and instructions in the thread sticky at the top of the forum. This will give you a huge improvement over the software currently on the navicomp. The screen will be better, you will get the Perspective (3d) view and things like postcode entry.

You will need 2007-2 HIGH DVD which is the latest map DVD. Try on Ebay as you cannot discuss duplicating copyrighted material on the forum!!

Hope this helps.

Question

Thanks, trapdoor!!!!
It all worked fine, all looks much better.

Just one Q more.
I can't get perspective view.
I go SET, and keep the selection buttom pressed for 10 sec, or I go in the SET and then press it for 10 sec. no additional selection appears on the second page. Why???
