Partial post codes. I find it's still better to look for the street, as the unit seems to be easily confuddled when you put the 7 digits of post code in.

I find if I use post codes with a 2005 disc, the unit crashes 1 in 3 times.

Now I just use streets.

For updated maps, you'll need to contact Navteq or Teleatlas.  You need a CARiN one, you may possibly have to go to VDO Dayton, who bought Philips Car Systems around 10yrs ago.

The CARiN unit cannot do 7 digit postcodes, and is pretty rubbish on 5 digit ones anyway.
