Also, I am in Houston, TX - does anybody here have a copy they can send me? I can pay for shipping cost plus a little extra for the troubles.
Thanks again guys! I look forward to learning a lot in these forums!

I can help you out with a copy of Region 1, East for $10. But that stops at Louisiana, and you are in Texas. Hopefully someone else can do the same on Region 2, west.[/QUOTE]

No update to the 2008's and older. Just had my SW update last week.
My friend just had the new software on his 2009. he said there are display differences. Plus it is not playing music files correctly off the USB. Not displaying song titles or something like that.

I had the original 2007 nav disc with the car, many roads were not in that version. I just downloaded the 2011 first time without issues., it loaded up and now I can see my street! Thanks this was really easy! I tried to do the same thing with my Trailblazer and it just doesn't work, the BMW system seems less sensitive than GM's system.

It does seem a tad bit slower however. I'll give it a few days to see if it speeds up.

first time posting, would like some help from all you knowledgeable folks:

i downloaded both the .rar files, unzipped them, and burned east .iso file using ImgBurn on lowest speed (4x for my drive). used a Verbatim DVD+R Life Series.

inserted into my 2007 E90, and received a message saying new navigation update was detected, and to shutdown the system for 5 min., at which point i turned the car off for 5 min. after 5 min i turned on the accessories, heard the navigation drive working, but then it displayed "Please insert Navigational DVD," it wasn't reading the disk. took out the DVD and reinserted, and still not reading.

what am i doing wrong here? this is the second type of DVD i used (first was Memorex), and the first time it displayed the message about new navigation update. also, to prevent me from making a lot of coasters, is there anyone that can send me working copies of both DVDs for a reasonable donation? thanks.

Is anyone experiencing slow disk read?
My copy takes forever to route and freezes at times.

[QUOTE=roguejestyr;9113091]first time posting, would like some help from all you knowledgeable folks:

Your brand of DVD is fine. Instead of shutting down the car just turn the nav off for 5 then reboot. If no better results, you will need another copy because that was most likely corrupt. I can burn you a copy of mine if need be. let me know if I can help out. PM or Spydeputy@gmail.com.

[ChickenFriedRice]

Dammit! Mine is starting to give me read problems. DVD is constantly searching and now sometimes the disc will work and other times it won't! Using Memorex DVD+R.

[ChickenFriedRice]

Following SpyDeputy's lead, I switched to a Verbatim DVD-R lightscribe and it looks like it did the trick. My BMW's drive seems to be more finicky than most.

[roguejestyr]

well, it looks like i solved my issue, which seems to be that i didn't let the system reset itself properly. i reinserted the East DVD i burned, reset the navigation by pressing Mute and both Eject buttons, and it worked. seems a little slow in calculating new routes, but at least i have updated maps. thanks for all the info and advice folks.

Which program are you using to burn the NAV? I've used IMGBurn and ISOBurn with success but only with Verbatim DVD-R Lightscribe. No matter what I tried, I could not get the Memorex DVD+R to work consistently.

If you want a disc, email Spydeputy his email address is here:

I'm in Canada, so it will likely cost too much in shipping for me to send you a disc. Good luck!

greetings fellow canuck.i have tried nero,freeisoburner,imgburn,roxio,and the default one for my laptop.i thought maybe its my drive so i burned some with my friends computer and still no luck.i have used memorex and verbatim.i think i read a few posts ago that Spydeputy only has east dvd but it would be useless to me since im in LA now.thanks for replying.

Wow, that's pretty brutal. Looks like you might have a sensitive DVD drive. Sorry, didn't see that you were in LA, hopefully someone on here has a working copy they can burn you. Good luck!

[TL]

I downloaded and burned it with my Macbook Pro with no problems.
PM me if you need a copy.

[Patsfan123]

Those with issues- burn at the lowest speed your DVD-R drive will let you.. Then try it in the car

[RN335]

i will be trying again for the last time as my wife will attempt it on her macbook pro at various burn speeds.and if that fails im thinking it might be that my idrive is just really finicky.oh well.will take you up on your offer if it fails.tnx.

[RN335]

aaah finally worked!!!i ended up going to a local internet cafe that had dvd burning services.i used their easy media creator 10 program and my memorex dvd-rw's and it worked like a charm.thanks for the help.
