2010 ML Navigation

Can someone tell me what Navigation version the 2010 ML (164) comes stock with and how can I get it to upgrade my wife's 2007 ML350?

Thanks in advance

not sure about the 2010 but for the 2007, it runs off a DVD so you can order it from the dealership but it's probably not worth it. the DVD only upgrades certain roads in certain areas of the United States.

Are you telling me that there is no fancy, amazing worthwhile update from 2006 the release year to 2010 going on 2011 for the ML Navigation system? It certainly wouldn't be worth just a few street updates.

My s550 has a significant update from 2007 to 2010.

From MY 2009 to present MY, MLs use hard drive for Navi, no longer DVD as MY 2006 to 2008, CD as MY 1997 to 2005.
To upgrade, I think the best way is to swap the trucks, since their head units looked similar, they are quite difterent. The 2010 MLs use NTG 2.5 with different connectors and fiberoptic loop layout.

To update the navi software, you can check with your dealer/ or Navteq which make the DVDs at $250.00 for 2010 version, although some of this forum members said the new version is not good as expected.

I bought the 2010 DVD and have used it throughout the midwest....I have nothing to really guage it against, but found it dead on accurate everywhere....better than my recently updated Magellan 4050....
Sold the old CD on eBay for 50 bucks...offset the new one to 199.00

That is important to me, to see if the update is worth it and if there are any functional or graphic changes that will come with the newer CD. If it's just a few additional maps, then it's probably not worth it.

Any model yr pre 09 has a different head unit but updates are available for you directly from the navteq site...I only update every 2 or 3 yrs to make it worthwhile and to let them build in enough changes to make it noticeable...for you it will no doubt be worth it after 4 yrs...one note...the latest version will likely be out in a few months as the 2010 version was released last Oct.Same looking/acting interface, just more updated mapping

The graphics did not change nor did the voice or anything else...just more updated mapping as far as I can tell....It did update software versions when the new disc was first installed. It does not look anything like the model years 09-10 versions.

Sorry to bump an old thread. But I was looking to see if anyone has a burned or ripped copy of the Navi DVD for my 06 ML350. Thanks in advance for any help.

Dvd

We purchased one of the nav dvd's off ebay, it was the 2015 version, we have 08. It worked immediately and didn't require a long update. $14.00

If it works by just inserting the dvd that means you don't have the NTG 2.5 with hard disk for storage, or you bought the wrong dvd and need the correct one that is installed, not just inserted. you need to find out which model Command you have.
