Just Ordered v12 of Navigation Disk

I received an email from Mercedes that a new version of the Navigation Disk (v12) was available for my 2007 s550 and ordered it. It should be here by the end of the week.

Send me a PM if you want to know what's new - I should have it installed in my car by the weekend.

Other than the usual updates to the roads and POI's, I don't see anything glaringly new.

I've only had it installed for a short while, but I did think that the display has minor changes. The street name to turn on to shows up on a narrow strip on top of the display as you get near. Perhaps it's me, but I don't remember this being the case on the previous version.

The street name to turn on has been on the top of the display for the last couple of versions. I would expect no change in appearance, only revised POIs and roads.

You are absolutely correct Steven. I am getting senile.

Two new things in this version (besides the usual updates):

- Brand Icon POIs - Provides an additional option of visual POIs via Brand Icons displayed on map

- Traffic Patterns - Allows the navigation system to find a faster route.

We delete posts that violate the TOU; i.e. copywrite.

Therefore members cannot see those. What is amazing that we still have members asking even so a moderator has already posted a warning in this regard. And NO, it is not limited to just

If Mercedes had a reasonable cost on the update maybe nobody would want to rent the update. When you can buy a complete GPS with latest updates for less than $100.00 why is a Mercedes update $249.95?

Help! NAV update v.13 (#A221 827 09 65) doesn't work on my 2008 W221 S63

I have the "Navigation DVD for COMAND Digital Road Map for the United States" for S-Class (MY07-MY09).
When I turned on the car and booted up the DVD in Changer Slot #1 (as instructed), the DVD eventually ejected within 1 minute because COMAND couldn't recognize the audio/video format.
I turned off the car, turned it back on (without the DVD), hit "NAVI", and COMAND displayed "Software updated. Please insert MAP update."
Have any of you seen something similar?
Are there two DVDs? Or only one?

leepy55,

Is the message displayed similar to the one in the link below? If yes, you might have an internal hard drive error
