Nav and firmware update?

[staituk]

Just wondering  anyone knows if there is a firmware update for my car. I know the nav maps there will be.

 

Thanks

These are V13 maps, the latest are V15.

Firmware is a bit outdated, but newer firmware doesn`t give you anything specific, if I remember correctly.

Your unit is currently running a 2 partition hard drive system (maps & music) and can't use the latest POI (speed camera, petrol stations, etc.) which can be either uploaded yourself or used from the maps version (if applicable). Updating the software will reformat the hard drive to give you 3 partitions (maps, music & POI) and allow the newer functions. You'll also get little tweaks like radio text and a few other little fixes,

Thanks how do I do that?

You'll need to either send it to someone who can do it for you ( can do it if you wish) or you can avail yourself of a software update disc and a maps disc and set to yourself. This thread is about 5 years old now so a lot of what's been written is now outdated, but it covers the basics even though the pics are now ronnied.

 

However, to shorten the process of trawling through all that for you...

 

Do a quick google for RNS510 5238 Josi and that will probably find you the software. 5238 is a catch all software which should be good for most if not all units.  Latest maps version is V15 (8515) and you will need either this or another version to reload after the software update (maps and music will be deleted).

Thanks, what version do i need to get the speed Cams?

 

[Rustynuts]

Speed cams are not included in the software or maps. You need to provide those yourself.
