Hi everyone,
I own a LR4 2011 in Canada and am trying to understand what I need to do to update navigation map. I keep on getting lost and not able to find places on it and had to start using my external Garmin...what a shame!
If I go to this site:
http://content.navteq.com/?2RTBvkr27nm09Q6QsIyN2UZfopalpCZL2
it tells me that I need to contact dealer to update maps for LR 2011, while LR4 2012 it is available and it costs $279 (I think it is US$)
I again contacted my dealer today who finally said that there is an update for my gps, but they want to charge me CAD$400 dollars to update it.
This seems to me more like a full version software purchase than actually an update.
Is the dealer that installs the original system or it comes pre-installed from factory?
If dealer installed it, then it seems to me that they installed a version that is not upgradable and that's why they are charging for new full version... am I right?
Does anybody know why I can't purchase maps for 2011 online and have to go thru dealer?
If I really have to go thru dealer, why is it so expensive?
Any help is appreciated
Thanks
