Hi Shawn, I became a first time owner of a BMW (2013 318d) lately and wish I could update the navigation. Currently have Europe Next 2013 but could use a more up to date version, if you can help would be very grateful.

You will get automatic Map updates OTA for your region. If you want to update the entire map database you can get the information from Sean. Your OTA map updates from BMW happen on BMWs schedule and are usually 1 version behind the latest set of map data that is available from someone like shawns contact.

So, POI, 3d and the other data will continue OTA or is that something that needs to be updated via USB ?

Everything is updated for your Region. You have a base installed map version (e.g. 2015-4) and the OTA updates are regional patches (e.g. 2016-4).

New 2016 F31

Hi! and Happy New Year to all.
I took delivery of a 2016 F31 and even though the maps were from 2016 they had many missing roads on my drive home.
Could you please give me the details on how to upgrade the maps to the latest level?
Thanks!

shawnsheridan,

I have a '14 with nav and I would like to update the maps too. My sales advisor quoted me $149 for the maps and an hour of labor.

I am curious about what you are offering and how it gets installed, or how difficult it is to install. My mother's friend bought a map update from Honda for his Odyssey and somehow ruined his head unit ($6000). So I'm a little anxious about trying the update myself.

Thanks!

You have NBT Head Unit (NEXT Map), which is a simple Single USB Drive update. PM sent.

I have the 2013 car with professional navigation and originally the 2013 map. After I update to the 2016 and subsequently 2017 SEA Next map, I have to spell the street name in my navigation voice input. I used to be able to do whole word entry before the update (not with Shawn Sheridan).

Any help?

I did it with a local workshop that deals with retrofitting continental parts especially BMW. They also can't seem to find out the reason why.

Many others who had their SEA map updated seems to face this as well, but the brand new car in the showroom does not (NbT EVo though)
