2017 Navigation Map Updates (Updated)

2016 Navigation Map Updates are starting to be released.

Available now are the following 2016 Maps:

North America PREMIUM 2016-1 (CIC Systems)

North America NEXT 2016-1 (NBT Systems)

North America ROUTE 2016-1 (ENTRYNAV Systems)

A VIN Specific 2016 Map FSC Coded is needed to install a new map.

If you want to update, and need both FSC Code and Map, I have an excellent source.

PM me for details.

Completed 2016 NAV upgrade without the dealer

Just completed 2016-1 NAV upgrade(from 2014-2) thanks to Shawn Sheridan's contact. The gentlemen that Shawn had me contact( not mentioning his name due to privacy) is excellent to work with because he answers your questions quickly and accurately. He knows this procedure inside out. I did not do everything correctly my own fault. Without his help. this would not have worked because I didn't follow the instructions exactly. You need WinZip which I had but I unzipped all files. Not necessary, you only need to unzip part 1 which contains the entire upgrade all in one 25Gig file. Once you unzip the file, copy just the files underneath the main NAVD folder to a 32G flashdrive which are 4 folders and 3 other files. Then, once you stick the flashdrive in the USB in the armrest, the upgrade comes up automatically and takes about 40 minutes so keep the car running. Hopefully, there are some new features which make it all worth it.

By VIN isn't something that can be done via public access.

Here is easy way. Unless you see "NBTevo", and "Automatic map update", then you do not have it:

New 2016 Map releases of interest:

- Road Map North America MOVE 2016
- Road Map Europe MOVE 2016

No, there are no other 2016 Europe Maps released yet besides MOVE 2016.

The FSC Code is to Activate / Install new Map. Service has nothing to do with it.
