Default Q7 Navigation Updates

Just learned that my Q7 nav unit CD ROM based software upgrade costs $200. The next update to the CD ROM map software won't be until June of 2012.

What kind of prices are others hearing for nav unit map updates?

firmware updates are key, i had the original firmware from day one and updated to the most recent back in february... the system is much quicker, the nav loads quicker, switching between menus does not have the lag it had before... as far the 2011 map disc goes, i bought that as well... in the nyc area not much has changed however there are several updates for northeast region and it was worth the money.

Where are you finding these updates? Whenever I look on the NavTeq and/or Audi websites, it shows no update available for my 2010 Q7.

Curious.

for the mmi firmware (4610 iirc) you need several seperate discs which update each module individually...

Thanks. Now I see why updates don't show for my 2010 Q7. Your link is for a 2007 Q7. Thanks again.

right, in theory your car should come with the newest software/disc available at the time of production. so there shouldnt be an update since 2010/2011 are the same...

i know the bmw 2012 navigation discs will be available in november i dont remember exactly when audi/mmi will be but iirc there will be a 2012 release in november/dec.
