NAV Versions

[DrG]

Just an update, the new NAV unit arrived within an hour of me driving to the dealership to check on it but I was able to get back out there late this afternoon and got it installed. It came with a version 5 disc and the service rep went ahead and gave me the new disc marked version 2. It has a GM part number on it but it doesn't match up with what the gmnavdisc website is showing but that's ok, I've got the NAV installed for my trip tomorrow and things are looking up.


Gotta start packing.

gmnavdisc dot com told me on the phone 3 weeks ago that the newest version for the H2 is coming out in August.

Get the 800 number from the web site and call them. They will put your Hummer into thier computer , if it's not already , and then you can recieve the updated discs.

Wait until Sepetember and you will be right up to date.

If you have any other GM vehicles with nav they will get those into the system also. My new Vette has the latest so I'm not getting that yet. The lady told me that I could get two free disc updates for each vehicle and it does not have to be yearly. She recommended checking for newer versions with them first and then ordering them.

After you get all your free updates you can still purchase updates for $99 each as many as you want to buy. So I guess we can stay up to date for life even after the freebees are gone (which is HUGE in Las Vegas where things change monthly).

In Las Vegas the shortest distance between two points - - is still under construction!!!

My disc says version 5. I purchased my SUT in June this year. I was told that was the most recent update????

I guess I should have checked the box before I wrote the above. I used the version 5 on the way to Colorado but I when I went to use the other to come home with (just for comparison), I found out the box that had the version 2 disc, was empty. Looks like the service guys got the last laugh.
I see the gmnavdisc site is showing another disc in addition to the version 5. It says its a 2008 H3 disc. I wonder if it really works in a 2005 H2?
