My System: Sigh-only Sky for now-Im back in the UK....... |
Can anyone give me any advise that I can pass on to my friend out here regarding his Satnav system please?, He bought his Discovery new in England 18 months ago,and had the system pre-installed there.As he lives here in Spain most of the time he had the car transferred on to Spanish plates about 9 months ago(a legal tax avoidance ploy,I think). The problem is that the system is well out of date,particulary here. He has since found out that the software was created about 18 months BEFORE he bought the car.I have tried my best to find an update on-line,without any luck.Is his only option to buy a new CD at a cost of 2-300 euros(or is it pounds)?. Seems a bit steep to me!. Thanks for any advice. | ||

Well as you do not mention what make it is I doubt that anyone will be able to help there, but surely if Landrover supplied something already 18 months out of date (and that can be proved) they or the supplier of the system should be responsible for supplying the update not the customer. Does Bill Gates charge for all the Windows updates? | ||

Well I do not know of any myself but I would have thought that one of these file sharing sites would have stuff like that posted, but I do not belong to any myself. However now that we know it is a NAVTEQ maybe someone will look for you..... good luck. Is there a model number or something as normally the limiting factor on stuff like this is the amount of memory the device has which limits the capability of applying updates/upgrades | ||
