S typwe Navigation system update.

[OxfordSteve]

I have recently bought a S type 4.0 Sports. Year 2001.

The navigation system seems to work fine but I dont know if it has been updated.

The disc in the drive in the boot has the Jag part number: XR83 10E898 AC 

and the Denso Part: 463200-5062.

Can anyone advise:

1, How old is this CD?

2, How do I update it (economically!!)?

3, Has anyone fitted a new nav system into the same 'hole' in the consul as the original?

Many thanks,

Steve

Hi Steve and welcome to the club.

 

Thee are several sites you can google for a Sat Nav disc. The one in my s type was a 2006 disc and I got a 2012/13 disc for £29 from a company called SatNav Updates.  I cannot tell you the Jag part number of the old one as I loaned it to another member who has not returned it and disappeared.  My new one is a DENSO disc.

 

But if you take out the disc and put it back after a few minutes the display should tell you what year of disc it is.

 

Regards

 

Peter.

Thanks Peter. I will email SatNav Updates (Upgrades??) to check.

SatNav Upgrades have just replied to say they can't help as my car is 2000 - they can only help after 2003. Thanks for the suggestion anyway.

Hi Steve,

 

A pity about that. There was a facelift on the s type around then and the SatNav must've been part of it.
