Nav updates

Question: How does one update the mapping software on 2012 C250 Coupe? Is there a CD-Rom or flash update? If a disk is used, where is the nav unit? The car has the smaller screen with Accessory Nav system. Thanks for any help!

One goes their MB dealership and pays an exorbitant amount of money to have them update your navigation system maps in your C250.


I've researched this extensively and to the best of my knowledge there is no DIY navigation map software update available that you can buy for the COMAND NTG 4.5 system.
If someone on this site knows otherwise, then please let us know.

I though that for the first 3 years of the car you get free updates ? that is certainly the case in UK. I just had mine updated for free in dealership

Mine is 5 months overdue as she was first sold in June 2012.

So, I called the dealership and asked; their reply was:
$250.00 for the CD
Additional $250.00 for installation/programming

Oy vey...
