I have been following the discussions on the transfer of map(s) to MB Cars. I purchased m very first MB in January this year (E Class) and I am still discovering all the hi-tech bits on it!
I have discovered that in the UK (as far as I can tell) you can only transfer Places to your car from your PC via Google Maps. You cannot transfer routes.
You have to go to http://www.google.com/maps/sendtocar. Click on SIGN IN and enter account info. Click on ADD CAR or GPS DEVICE. Type in your car manufacturer in ACCOUNT ID field. Your ID should be your VIN. Once this is done and your car is registered then when you go into Google maps and click on a place, the box that appears should now have a SEND TO CAR link. Click on it and the place is sent.
What I have not worked out yet, is how to go about retrieving it on my car!
Suggestions would be appreciated.
