Re: Upgrade SD satnav to non-SD satnav

Some success today! I have found not 1 but 3 dealers willing to do this at 30 minutes labour. They said there is no guarantee it will work though but are willing to give it a try. Does anyone know what the chances of success are?

Re: Upgrade SD satnav to non-SD satnav

Thanks, so the more I dig into this, the more I am thinking that the Nissan dealer approach is a policy decision from head office as opposed to a technical reason. So the only way to go is aftermarket. I think the safest way to do this is to read the eeprom from within the radio and re-write the VIN...

Re: Upgrade SD satnav to non-SD satnav

Re: Upgrade SD satnav to non-SD satnav

I ubderstand. Here's the thing, the dealer has said that this programming is a 1 time only thing. The replacement radio needs to be returned to its factory state before it can be written with a new id. I have no idea if he is right but he claims to have worked for nissan for over 20 years so he must...

Re: Upgrade SD satnav to non-SD satnav

I understood perfectly :) so here is the thing, the dealer said the keys can only be written once into the radio and cannot be overwritten. If you try and overwrite the keys, the entire car may not start
