Here's Navteq's link....I believe this version...check against number on yours, is the latest. Don't see Nova Scotia.

Eject the disc and see which version you have. You probably have "05064033AD". The latest disc is "05064033AE" and for 100% certain has map areas for Nova Scotia.

BTW, to access the disc there is a small door you need to remove, see this pic: http://www.wkjeeps.com/nav/nav_6disc_07t.jpg

Thanks just got the new disc and needed to find out how to change it. Did not even have to ask.

i cant find out for sure on the navteq website if the newest version has Nova Scotia. does anyone know where i can confirm this before i shell out the $200 bones?

Trust me, it does, I scrolled through them when another owner had a question a few months ago and I looked again tonight. I can give you a list of provinces that are on the disc later tonight if you want...

i checked i do have the latest version but major centres like halifax and where i am from are not on it. i found this very strange that small places like church point with a population of 50 is on but not even our capital! guess ill have to wait till the next one...
thanks guys

those who have the updated version in the USA, is it worth getting? Where is the cheapest price?

Do the srt-8 07's come with a nav disc or do you have to buy one? my nav is not hooked up and dealer never gave me a disc? thanks

when is the next upgrade coming out and is there any way to tell if nova scotia will be on it????

If you have nav., your dealer should have the disc.

If your GC came equipped with nav, your dealer should have put the disc in before delivering the vehicle.

anyone know when the new disc will come out???

Looks like it's available as a bittorrent. perhaps I'll check it out 'for evaluation purpose only' :cool:

EDIT:
I Dl'ed the ISO. I'm just a noob when it comes to burning DVD's, so it might take me a few days to get the right blanks.
If anyone is interested in 'evaluating', it's a whopping 8gig; 'DELETED URL' go find it yerself :)

I have an older LG brand DVD+RW, any DVD experts here ? What format should be correct ? I understand there's a couple standards, DVD+RW -RW etc.

One comment on the torrent site was that the dude got a read error when trying to install the DVD in the GPS.

cheers

EDIT2: OK, quick question here. For you guys who received the update, is it one DVD or two ????
If it is one DVD then that would mean those of us who are 'evaluating' the torrent version will need a Double Layer DVD+R with a capacity of 8.5Gigz.

From what I know, you DO need a double layer DVD+R. The "AE" is one disc, not 2.

Thanks... "Hun" :D

FEI, a DL burner and the '06 ISO is 'the joy'.

so does anyone know about a new version for the 06' and 07's or what. i really wish the nav worked in my area...

Eject the disc and see which version you have. You probably have "05064033AD". The latest disc is "05064033AE" and for 100% certain has map areas for Nova Scotia.

BTW, to access the disc there is a small door you need to remove, see this pic: http://www.wkjeeps.com/nav/nav_6disc_07t.jpg

it dosnt have nova scotia or any of atlantic canada.

Is there any way to find out what version you have without asking the dealer?:rolleyes:

They never gave me the disk!!!

Thanks,
Al

they should have given you the disc. its included with the owners manual package.

If you're nav is currently working, you have the disk in the ride. Eject the disc and it will tell you which version.

Just a note per 2008 models, a disc is NOT included with the MyGIG system as the map information is loaded onto the HD.
