Rns510 maps with full postcodes?
« on: March 16, 2011, 07:19:42 pm »
Which version of maps will I need and which firmware version?

If I need a different firmware, will I likely face battery drain issues? Currently using can gateway version K.

V7 maps give you the full postcode if you are running firmware 2660 or higher

A K version gateway 'should' be OK to run this version of firmware

Do you know if you have a A or B version of Navi

You need a minimum of 268X firmware and V7 Maps.

You can still use V7 maps to get the newer mapping on older firmware. You just don't get the 7 Digit PC support without 268X or higher firmware.

It needs to be 268X for it to work properly :happy2:

Hi all,
Just wondering if there is a cheaper source for V7 maps than Main Dealers  :drinking: and a more reliable source than Lithuania on Ebay :smiley:
If anyone has answers them we can PM or email if necessary
