PCM2.0 Nav Update
For those who have 04/05 MY PCM 2.0 units (CD Nav).
I just got the new map updates and installed them.
There are now 7 CD's covering the US, Canada Mexico and Brazil. I really need to travel more.
There is one update CD which seems phone related, at least when inserted it does a phone update to my non-phone PCM, a bit like being able to play the violin after getting a tooth out.
This completes quickly, you then insert whatever map CD you normally use and it carries out the update. You need to run the engine as there have been published warnings of not trying to update when power may be lost.
I think this release may not have been voluntary, a little bird told me.
From what I can tell my local roads seem more detailed and PIO is more usable with even local food stores now showing up together with a nearby vin yard.
Here is the rub....... $299 plus tax, I got mine from the great guys at Sunset Imports
Look out for dealers trying to sell for more than $500 (seriously)
Part number is 000.044.901.21
