Upgrade to latest version of sat nav from 4 1 /30
 

Hi,

Can somone tell me whats required to upgrade to the latest version please. Im aware that a CD is required from BMW for the latest maps but not sure about how to go about the firmware software if required

Thanks in advance

A software upgrade disc is required and can be bought cheaply on the web (along with new compatible map discs). Turn on ignition to position 1. When the nav has booted up, take out your map disc. Load the upgrade disc, the upgrade will take place automatically and will eject the disc when complete (about 6 mins). Then re-load your map disc - done!

Hi,

Thanks for that.

Whats the latest version of the maps which are compatible with my firmware?

hello
 

i would be interested to find out how to update the sat nav maps. will the ugrade depend on the year of the vehicle.

Do a search on google for BMW maps. You need to know which Sat Nav model you have . Mk's 1, 2 and 3 as far as I know were CD based and the Mk 4 is DVD based.

BMW started fitting the Mk 4 in 2005 I think.

I have just upgraded my 55 plate E53 to version 32 software and 2010 maps. £36.50 inc p+p and next day delivery

Gives speed camera alerts and Night Mode + perspective (3D ) view ( bit fiddly to turn it on ) and 7 digit post code entry ( VERY fiddly to use - but it does work )

Where did you buy these from .

Hi
