NAV Maps Updates
yup, me again asking newbies questions. I apologize in advance but the search feature is just not friendly at all.
i just bought a used 2014 C300 (P1, NAV/mm package, Sports). It is still under warranty. I have done a couple of things to it already (tint, 19inch AMG wheels), and now I want to ensure I have the latest and greatest firmware of command and NAV maps.
when I go to NAV, and go to version, it shows:
"2013/2014 (v10.0) N. America"
so, do I have the latest? If not, can you advise on best way and lowest cost to seek updates?
cheers

You need to purchase the DVD from Mercedes (they come out with a new one each year).

Two more questions;
1. is this self-installable?
2. can you go directly from v10 to v15?

Yes, you can skip versions and go directly to the latest.

I am in the same boat. The maps on my 2013 are pretty old now. It always gets me lost or has me doing U turns when I get near the destination because the roads are different than whats in the maps.
I want to update but I was told my MB Tech that I should wait till April or something because thats when the new year disks are released.
I read some conflicting things about about being able to update myself or if i needed some key which only MB can generate.
I would totally be up for sharing a disk and splitting the cost.
Found some good info here: http://www.mercupgrades.com/Comand+A...-faq-15.html#1

If yours is NTG 4.5 or 4.7 (it must be it), then you can only update the maps if you get a code from mercedes dealer.
To update the firmware, you must do it at the dealer. No other way!

You need to buy the DVD from the dealer, when the DVD comes in (you usually have to order them, and new ones come out in late July each year), the dealer will enter your VIN and the product code from the disc and that will generate a PIN (code) that you have to enter during the installation process. This has been confirmed with my local dealer and many others online who have completed the process. It is very easy and definitely a DIY job. The dealer can certainly do it for you if you wish (and will charge you accordingly).
An FYI, the DVD update disc here in Canada is $69, but, the PIN code(license) is $179. Go figure. LOL

BTW, the update media comes as a flash drive. This is NO longer on a DVD. I'll post pics of unit later today.
