2017 Nav card update

Recommended Posts

The 2017 nav cards update costs $149 online from their nav store. $3.95 shipping. 2 different part numbers based on model years, 2011-14 and 2015-16.

 

Some interesting new features for 2015-16 NVs:

Lane change alerts for exits. Merging?

Voice activation/recognition. (I have my doubts how well this will work but it would be great to be able to make changes while moving. If it lets you do this?)

Speed limit notification to avoid tickets. (A miniature speed limit sign on the display? Or a voice reminder? Very annoying if it nags at you if over the speed limit.)

 

For 2011-14 NVs, none of the new features are mentioned. Basically just an update of roads and places, so not a great upgrade.

 

New 2017 owners, let us know how well the 2017 nav card features work.

I haven't noticed the speed limit notification. We also have a 2017 maxima and that one clearly shows it. Will start paying attention to the NV. Do you know how to tell if it's a 2017 nav card? I pulled it out but couldn't find a year.

It should (?) have a part number on it or if you go into the setup mode, it may (?) show the year. In the past, new NVs had the previous year card.

 

To get the part number go online to the nav store.

Since we had a $100 Discount Tire rebate, we decided to update the nav card. It was on sale. Go to www.nissannavigation.com if you have any questions.

 

The card, new and old clearly show the date and part number. Old cards can be reused after formatting them. No instructions on how to do this. Not something we need to do.

 

Installation was easy, maybe. None of the applications screens came up and the provided code or "reference number" wasn't needed. The system did reboot and the nav works. Waiting on a response to my question "did it download properly?"

 

We just wanted for interstate updates and best ways to get through or around major cities.
