  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Has anyone been successful downloading a nav update to a San disc and then using the USB in the console? Took a half hour to download to the disc but then the car wouldn’t recognize anything.
 
I'm having the same issue (2014 5.0 r-spec). I have ordered three different USBs thinking that was the issue. Sub'd, and I'll let you know if I fing any success. GL!

Thanks! Yeah still haven’t pursued this any farther. I use my phone most times but it would still be nice to have the car up to date.

Every update I've done I've used the SD card. 32gb size is a must. Very smooth process.

Hello, i have a 2014 genesis sedan. I guess that would be 1st generation. I am trying to update Nav system. I only have the usb port and not SD card port. Any suggestions? Thank you

When I had to update mine I used the update application you download onto your computer. When I downloaded it it was very specific about what type of medium should be used for the update. I would start there. They may require a DVD for the update.

Buy the preloaded update USB from MapNSoft?

I'm not familiar with mapNSoft but if you are going to spend money you probably should just go to the dealership develop a relationship with the service team and ask them how they would do it to gleam more insight. After they update it once I'm sure you'll be able to follow it up on your own.

MapNSoft is Hyundai/Kia/Genesis's software company that makes all the map updates. They are the one that the downloads come from. It's $25 plus shipping to order directly from them. Put the dealer in the middle of it and add at least $100 to that. Your choice. I believe that for that generation they will ask for a hardware serial number (viewable on the entertainment screen).

Just go to this site: Official Genesis Navigation Update Website

You can download their downloader and just download the update to your USB thumb drive or sd card and install it to your vehicle. If you do not want to do that, you can also order the update for your vehicle from the site. Once you get the new media from them, you will then again have to install it. Follow the instructions. It is really easy.
