[WITHERS]

Hi,

Could someone please let me know if the nissan connect maps covers Europe or are UK only ?

If UK only can European maps be added ?

Many Thanks

 

[Fontie]

Maps are UK and Europe

Hi Boxst: What route do you normally take? If you pass my way, drop in.

If you are in Bavaria, Southern Germany just send me a message. I live very close to The Eagles nest in the National Park of Bavaria.

 

[Ouch!]

Whilst we're on the subject of the connect maps.

Are there regular updates for the maps and where can you get them cheap?

Ouch!

Look Here! I don't think you can update the Nissan Conect Sat Nav. Vauxhaull Sat Navs are the same, they are not updatable.

You must be able to update them, new roads are always being laid, if you couldn't update it, it would be useless in a couple of years. I guess it must be doable as that's why it has a removable SD card

Sorry but the Nissan Conect Sat Nav maps cannot be updated as yet, unless you get one from ebay. Sept 2010 is the latest available.Read the questions on the link I have provided.

I'm pretty sure all that means is that their isn't an update available at this time, but I'm sure by next year there will be.

I think everyone needs to not panic, their will be an updat at some point for maps, as for the camera updates, see the link

If you read the forum link properly, you will find that Nissan have not updated any of their Sat Navs as none are yet available. When they are, it will cost around £300 to update. Might as well buy a Navman, or Tom Tom top end sat nav for around £200 + which can be updated every three months or so on line.

These in car Sat Navs (except Renault who use the Tom Tom) are not what they are made ot to be. I was told by the Vauxhall dealer not to have the built in Sat Navs, because they can't be updated. So I use a stand alone Navman which cost me £78 from Argos, thus saving £328 for the cost of Vauxhalls £400 built in Sat Nav. By the way, my present car is a Vauxhall Zafira, which I am changing for a Juke in September. And yes it will have the Nissan Conect Sat Nav, but if it gets out of date, I can always plug in my Navman. Most in car sat navs are just a con.

I did read it properly thank you, and I stand by what I said, (don't panic) lol I'm sure they will bring an update out, they would be stupid to miss out on easy money. Edit I pressed update post before I finished typing. **** iPad.
Cheaper options will be available in time its like anything it always gets cheaper the longer things are out. Edited by: Dinski

Well I hope you are right Dinski, but if it isn't updated soon, new models now being built will have the Sept 2010 maps, it is already 10 months out of date.

Most Smartphones have good navapps, some free, or relatively inexpensive, that update themselves.

 

[...]

cant answer this for fact but the connect system has been around a few years and as far as I know only Nissan do update SD cards at a seriously inflated price of between £200- £300
as others have said maybe someone will come along with a discount version

 

[Geoff_Juke]

When you come to think of it, these built in sat navs that are not updatable are a rip off really. Why don't manufactures use sat navs, like Navman, Garmin, Tom tom etc that are updatable. If Renault can do it, why not other car manufacturers.

I've updated mine using gpsworld, cost £20 for 12 months updates
