cheapest way to update Nissan qashqai satnav?

As above.

The original is on an sd card. But I'm not sure it's the latest version.

Don't know when the last release was or anything

    Fair enough, I was giving you a cheaper option that'll give you a much better interface, user experience and lifetime updates. Buy heyho. So much more for so much less.

    You can update simply by changing the SD card, but the changes might not be worth your while for the cost involved. There are 2 types of Connects, I think version 1 and 2. You'll need to know that as well. Once you've got more info I can probably help you out finding more about the upgrade.

    Connect 1 version 7 I think is needed. Looks like £50 on eBay for a genuine one. What's to stop someone copying the sd card and using that?

    Not possible as the card is copy protected so no way round copying it. I'm member of the Qashqai forums and loads have looked in to trying this and it wasn't possible.

    Got two satnavs with lifetime updates but this is built in so no wires or running phone batteries and data down.

    A bit off topic but do you have a service plan for your qashqai? How much do you pay if so?

    I got a 1 or 2 year service for free when purchasing the car new and outright.

    I never ended up buying an update. The ones I saw on eBay after enquiring didn’t seem so legit. I asked if it came on an sd card and they said I needed to buy a blank one and copy it. Maybe you’ll find someone genuine to buy from? It was a while ago

    Look at the GPSunderground website, they used to have the files/roms/images for car GPS systems. This was a while ago when I updated my Primera's GPS on a DVD. Never bought a car with inbuilt GPS since, much prefer the phone option. Waze is second to none in my opinion.

    Hi. Can anyone help me. I have just bought a Quashquai 2011 car. I have noticed the the Sat-Nav is way out of date. Its on a SD card which is located on the bottom right hand side of the head unit. Do i have to go through Nissan? Or is there a company that deals with this. But i want a proper one, not something that is a copy.
    I know i can use my phone etc. But i do prefer the system in the car. Thank you so much in advance.

    Use the link above in comments to find out which you need. Then you can shop around eBay and amazon etc to find a better price. My wife never bothered to update ours so I never bought one. But there are dealer types on eBay that will have it cheaper. Just make sure I to ask them questions. Mine is on an sd card. I’m guessing yours will be.
