c250 AMG Sports Premium + Auto cdi
I drive a June 2014 registered C250 AMG Sports coupe Premium+ Auto cdi. The nav system is Command with maps; 2014 v.10.0. Which update discs do I require, can I update the maps myself at home and where can I get them at a reasonable price please? Any advice would be most welcome.
Thank you.
 
At a guess, your Comand nav system will be NTG4.5/7 or later, so you need 2 things - a PIN specific to the VIN of your car, which can only be obtained from an MB main dealer or MB indie like comand.co.uk that have access to the MB mainframe to get it, plus the latest DVD's to update firmware and maps. Prepare for wallet rape - PIN will be about £50, DVD's about £100.

Surprised you're still on original maps as since about 2011/12 new cars came with 3 years free map updates at main dealer, so between 2014 and 2017, if it had a main dealer service, they should have updated the maps as part of the service (it's actually a line item in the MB ESS). However, main dealers are notorious for not doing it unless specifically requested (and even then saying you have the most up to date maps when you do not!) as it ties up a service bay for a couple of hours, and they can't charge for it.
