Yes. I have read that and actually responded in the thread but it does not say whether I have a separate reader or do I use the in dash.

I updated my NAV DVD with a 2016 version that I bought from eBay. Everything works perfectly.

be careful with EBay disc, I've ordered a couple from eBay and every single one I've got is just a burned pirated disc.
And even then, the year, or version they claimed, wasn't even the version I got. When I put them into my PC, the file would say it would be a 2010, or 2014, Etc.
I ended up trying to use one and the printed label on the top of the desk self-destructed in my wife's Tahoe. I had to take the head unit apart to clean it out.
I reported all these sellers to eBay about the piracy, and they didn't do anything, those sellers are still selling today.

It's been mentioned in another forum. I guess some of those guys are just burning those discs and selling them. Anyone with strong google skills should be able to find it out there. I think the problem is that people burn them at high speeds, they work fine when burned at a lower speed. Those EPC/WIS Dvd's on eBay are also copies, same with those Star/Xentry C3/C4 systems, but nothing seems to happen with those.
