Title: Sat nav disc
Post by: tallandy on 18 May 2009, 14:11:35

Hi all Got 2001 elite with the siemens 2013 buillt in. just wondered who makes the sat-nav disc looks like mine is a copy popped it out the cd drive for the 1st time and saw it was a recordable cd with 2002 written on it. Tried my old rover 2007 disc in just in case that worked lol did,nt but was worth a try. so any help be appreciated i have a tomtom but if the cd is cheapish always useful to have as back-up

Navteq. If you use a copied CD in the Nav drive it will trash the laser unit.

Try eBay.de for a genuine CD.

Yup, Navteq. From memory around £70ish.

Guessing your Rover used CARiN based one then (hardly surprising seeing as BMW set up most of Rover's supply chain, and they are big VDO Dayton users) - thats another to cross off the list  :'(

And for the record, as I know someone will ask, NCDC2013 does NOT support TMC in the UK (but does in many other parts of Europe)
