Just before trading in my Xtrail I was given quote for a map update few £100's. When buying QQ, August 2019, was told map updates will be free and downloaded from internet - good I thought. But I beginning to think WHEN? Anybody know when Nisan will issue new map, my version is GENO EUR 2017.12 and I find myself in the middle of fields occasionally.

Thanks

Peter

I had a new map download and a software update a couple of months ago.

In the Connect system there’s a page called "connections” (I think)
Go on there and make sure you are connecting to your home WiFi - you will have to input your WiFi password.
That’s where your software and map updates come from

Their version numbering leaves a lot to be desired and you may still have to do this via their windows map tool via USB key, but they did issue their latest update just a couple of months ago. Unfortunately for me, any such map updates causes the hardware to throw a fit and results in a factory reset once installed, but then the map data persists and it's just a matter of entering all my settings for the umpteenth time.

Hi )
My name is Artem. I am from Ukraine. I have Nissan from USA. That is why my navigation doesn't work in Europe. Could anyone share to me files which you downloaded from you car navigation to the USB stick for the Map Update Tool, please.
Because my navigation given me files which support only USA states and Canada in the Map Update Tool.

I need files from "Save map information to usb device". Like in this video:


Send me the archive to the apavluykov@aol.com

I will be appreciate to you )
Thx

When you use the map update tool you do so having first registered with Nissan, thereafter he tool is only going to offer you maps for regions you are allowed to use with that vehicle. So the simple answer is actually "I just selected the regions I wanted from the list offered". Ie I selected European regions as they were offered to me for download. It did not give me any options to download anything for North America for example.

You are right. But my car from USA that is why Map Update Tool showing me regions from America. This tool analyzed files which I stored to the usb stick from my nav.
That is why I need files from European car to try cheat my nav.
