How can I find out what the latest version of the navigation DVD is for my 2008 535XIT? Prev. owner decided to keep the disc and I am confused if the 2008.1 dvd-ccc is the correct one to get. Will new version be out shortly?
Thanks.
Thanks.

I was checking for the latest from the Manufacturer, NAVTEQ, and found this posted on their site:

Thank you for your interest in purchasing a BMW Navigation Map Update. At this time, NAVTEQ® no longer produces or distributes map update DVDs and CDs for your vehicle. For more information on how to purchase as well as general questions regarding your BMW Navigation System, please contact your local authorized BMW Dealer.
I called the dealership today and was told they had to return all discs they had in stock and no longer have discs available. They have yet to receive a bulletin from BMW that addresses future support or uppdates to our disc driven systems.
Please post anything else you have heard.

2010.1 is or at least should be the latest version. You have to specify whether you want the U.S. or European maps. The cost is $200 brand new, so you should be able to save some money by getting an used, older ccc version for less.
I suspect that since BMW is using HDD based navigation units the DVD-Rom's are no longer in production.

OK... I will look for the 2010.1 US maps then... Thanks for the clarification. It's just that the 2010 disc I've seen all mentioned Europe.
You would think that BMWNA would continue to support their older systems for a few more years. Maybe not!

New problem: I went to Teleatlas.com per BMWNA's direction and they only list map discs for 5 series built from 1995 - 2003. I have an email request pending with them for an update and will post it.
Cheers.

I downloaded a 2009 version last week from bit torrent. It supposedly has 'speed' camera locations as well.

So can anyone simply tell me how to get an updated dvd for my 2007 5 series? I understand the torrent info... but it seems kind of rediculous that i cant simply buy the latest dvd version for an E60 07...
