Hi all,

I have a Nov-99 Carrera 4 with PCM.
Anyone know where I could get:

1. Software upgrades for the system? For example, BMW released an upgraded software version every 6 months or so which could be loaded on all cars.

2. Where I can get a new map disk from

Many thanks in advance

go to www.navtech.com , they are the suppliers of the software ( hardware is from siemens)
nb under the PCM warranty you were entitled to free updates for a 36 month period , so you may be unlucky...also the upgrade frequency closer to 24 months than 6 months but this is based on commercial reality and law of supply and demand. Good luck

Thanks for this.
I was interested to read NavTech supply 9/10 of car systems. I wonder if my old BMW 2003 map disk will work...
