Lightbulb Navigation System Gen 6 - '10-'13 models firmware and map updates

Dealer would need to perform this update. This system doesn't appear end user upgradeable like '14+ models.

I notice when I went into diagnostic mode that I have C751 so mine could definitely stand an update. Maps are old as well at version 11.09.10

Diagnostic: Hold INFO button down and toggle Headlight Switch ON/OFF 3x




EDIT: Just speculation but it appears that a paid navigation update would install this update and address fixes.

Just check mine and it's super old too. But I haven't experienced any of the listed issues (yet). I guess 2010 model doesn't start with "C".

Only thing I have notice is some slower iPhone music listings but I haven't seen anything else. I do plan to give it one nav update later this year and call it good on that.

The last time this was posted I went to the dealer and was given a quote for $298 to have it done. I opted to skip it, especially since I haven't seen anything posted about how big of a difference it makes.

I was quoted around $240.

$170 for maps and $70 labor.

Anyone with a premium should NOT toggle the headlight switch on/off. They should only toggle from auto to the parking light in a bright enough setting so that auto doesn't trigger the headlights. Quick cycling xenon bulbs can burn them out.

Edit: though apparently its worse with some bulbs/ballasts than other. Still, it's best to avoid unnecessarily flashing xenon bulbs.

That is a good tip if that works with AUTO but I've never burnt one out myself in 15 years. Undoubtedly shortened the life of one though. Fortunately HID bulbs are pretty cheap these days. Never lost a ballast. Here is a bad alarm design... I had a 2002 Maxima that flashed the D2S HIDs with the factory alarm instead of the halogen high beams

I think I have experienced the slow iPhone scrolling. Good to know a nav update also includes firmware. Thanks tecman for that info.

With an update you may find that your location changed. You need to change this while searching an address. Mine defaults to NE.

Good to know on possible area change issue. This is probably the only time I will update this.

How much is the update in the US? Here up in Canada (Toronto to be exact) dealers want close to $500 CAD with tax included for it. $285 for the map and $145 for one hour of labor, plus 13% tax on top.

Throwing in tax rate of around 10% it looks to be around $255 USD for me. That is out the door for everything.
