DIS Nav/Map Update

New thread so people could find details.

I took my 2012 R-spec into the dealer today for the April 2012 version update. Service manager said there five DVD's to apply - two software and three maps. The update estimate was 5 1/2 hours. He plugged the car into the charger at 8:17 and the last map finished processing at 1:46. Map #3 hung partway through and had to be restarted. 30 minutes was lost.

Tech time was listed as just over one hour.

AFAIK, no radio pre-set's or cell phone Bluetooth settings were harmed and everything seems to work as before although complete testing is going to take awhile.

How much did they charge?

It was a freebie due to the car being sold with an outdated map version.

Dang! You came out great! When I was negotiating for my 2010 (bought used) I was thinking all throughout the process to ask for the update at the end of the negotiations to seal the deal........ but, forgot about it (gettin' old). I was thinking at the time it was maybe $75-$80 like a Honda....... silly me, right?!

Had I had any clue it was $300+ I'm sure I would have remembered! Too late now
