Hi everyone,

I've been searching around for a quick and easy way to upgrade my navi to the latest version for my region, and I always struggled to discover a solution that is reasonably priced and also has a simple interface/etc. So I decided to write up this guide, for people to potentially see and get this done as I know it's something people neglet these days.

What you need to do first:

  • Get your VIN number from your car, I am sure if you scour this subreddit this is easy to find
  • Get the region of your car from the data card, or whatever way you could do that
  • Discover your NTG version, such as NTG5 or 5s1 or 5s2 or this even works for older models. From NTG3.5 to 5s2
Guide:

  • Make sure you have DLM downloaded and through this app you can create a USB stick containing the map files
  • Go to MBRetrofit Tools - and make an account
  • Go to the map page and click create generation, fill in the details you should have gathered beforehand
  • Pay, it is 50 euros for a code, but with the coupon code it is a pretty good price
  • Verify your details one more time, and then click generate and there you go!
Info: I also saw you can get DELETE codes which can be useful when upgrading your car

You can use this coupon code "RELEASE1", that gave me 20% off, I am not sure if it is for every purchase or your first one - try it out!

UPDATE: I also found a blog post on the website showing, what will probably be a more up-to-date, version of this guide. MBRetrofit Tools
