Thanks

That has already been stated. It is to be release in Feb 2008.

Your original reply of "suppose to" is not a definitive answer of when it's due out sir. I'm looking for information regarding an exact date without any assumptions.

Only 1 week left in Feb. Where is the update?

Winston Wolf · 02-24-2008, 09:51 PM

My 2008 January production car came with the 2007 version.

February came and went and still no 2008 NAV DVD

philmcgee · 03-11-2008, 04:14 AM

Hi, I borrowed the 2008-1 Europe DVD from a friend of mine to try it in my E92. FYI, he has an E93, the disc was a backup to DVD+R and not an original.

If I look at the POI icon files on the disc (.GIF files) they look fine on my PC, but on my nav screen they all come up as a circle with a dot in the middle, regardless of category. It's as if the nav is not reading the GIF files but using a generic icon, or it could be a scaling problem. Anybody else have this?

I want to get an official version of the disc if this problem will not occur, but I am not going to waste EUR250 if the new disc will not work with my progman version. My dealer is usually clueless on these kinds of things so I would rather find out here first.

cdp1276 · 03-11-2008, 04:08 PM

This is likely another reason BMW dropped them, not reliable for updates. Two a year seems decent but when we haven't had one since Oct 2006 that is really bad. I know I report issues through their site all the time for bad POI's. Only once have I ever been notified that they corrected it and that was after 2 years time. Not impressed with them at all, must be a really small staff. Hope we see a new disc soon....

amjustice · 03-19-2008, 02:32 PM

man, I hope a new disk comes out before I get my car. I just ordered last week and will probably get my car in April or May. It would really suck if a new nav DVD came out right after that. Do you think I would have any reason to ask for a complementary version if that happened?

Life is tough....I take delivery this week, USD 5K for the navigation and no maps for the country I live in. I'd even take 1988 maps if I could get them.

Someone is going to seed it once it does come out.

Stinger44 · 03-24-2008, 06:49 AM

I took delivery of my E92 in Jan 08 and it didn't have a NAV DVD included because it would have been the European DVD. I'm waiting for the 2008 map DVD to come out before I order the DVD. Seems silly to get the 2007.2 version now only to have to order the 08 version soon after. Would be nice to get a rough date on when the new one is due out though. Can't get that information from NAVTEQ.

amjustice · 03-27-2008, 11:51 AM

The newest one is out now. I hope they deliver it with my car.

Thanks. Didn't think I would need to click on 2007 to get a 2008 dvd.

No updates in my area anyway.

AJerman · 03-27-2008, 12:50 PM

$200?! My car better come with it when I order it, if not I'm going to be asking BMW to pony up the cash for it when it comes out.
