Hi Kevan,

Check this website out you should be able to get hold of the latest 2011 disc, does mention something about updating the firmware but there is a link in the thread about it. I got my latest Jag disc though them and there is plenty of info on there. :wink:

Kevan, you have pm
V32 is the firmware upgrade, which gives you night colours and a different perspective map view. I have just done mine.

I have an element of 'M-styling' on my car, If that's a good enough reason for the manufacturers to adorn a 320 with the M badge, then its certainly a good enough reason for me..

Hi guys,

I have just purchased a 07 3.0si Sport (will be putting pics up as soon as the car dries).

It came with the satnav system, with the 07 disc. Dont think this has speed camera alerts, well I cant see it anyway.

If i download the DVD in the link, is this the 11 version? how do I upgrade the firmware to get the alerts to work?

Thanks guys.

Hi lukedon,

It's simple to install the firmware. You burn the image to a disc, stick that in the navigation computer, and the system will walk you through the install process.

Best
Dan.
