Is it possible to update your sat nav maps without having to go to the manufacturers own web site and pay a fortune?

I know mine’s getting on now (2006), but just wondered if there’s someone else that has updated maps to download?

it’s possible just a word of warning if you have poi’s and favorites stored save them seperatly as when I updated my tomtom I lost 2 years worth of data. :frowning:

Go to gpsunderground.com and depending on what saat-nav you’ve go you may be able to download the latest maps.

Agree, I do all our works ones with the latest maps from NaviTotal.

Can also change the nav-cores to run things like Lane Guidance and House Numbers on older sat-navs that didn’t have them to begin with.

Navitotal all the way for me…updated loads of time with no serious problems.

Why not just use Google Maps on your phone? Unless of course you’re one of these new age truckers that can only follow a sat nav or need complete written instructions that must include “turn right/left out of the gate…”
