Any one know if and how i3 will get GPS map updates? I found the GPS map is not up-to-date in my area. ...missing a few newer (in use for a few years now) roads and asked me to turn to a junction that no longer exist.
It was my understanding that files are available for free to everybody.No piracy needed. The only issue is the code, which you can buy yourself, no need for the dealership to do the upgrade. Was I wrong?websterize said:If you're OK with software piracy, there are torrents available for the 2015-1 maps. In some cases, you need an unlock code, which run about $50. For some i3s, the maps will update without the key code. Seems hit or miss. The legal way to update maps is to have the dealer do it for around $300.
