Hello MB-community,
my parents got an 2011 A-class W169 with a navigation-unit, already with firmware 09.29 (HW-version 09/34) and sadly, with the maps 6.0 from 2009. So I decided to do them a favor and bought a used DVD-set on e*ay (A219 827 27 00): 2019 - version 16.0.
I received the DVDs (they looked very well and clean) and I inserted the first DVD into the drive. It asked me for updating and I selected: yes.
The progress-bar went onto 15% in 10 mins - so far, so good. Then I heard a scratchy noise from the dvd (from revin' inside of the drive). The Update stopped with <can't read the DVD, please insert the Update-DVD>. The DVD came out and I could see deep scratches on the data-side.
This is where it got worse.
The headunit is in a <please insert Disk 1>-loop and the optical drive (single version -- no multi-changer) won't read any disk. I already contacted Mercedes Benz Germany, they told my local dealer and he sold me a new DVD-set. So I made an image + copy on DVD+R DLs, but the drive wont read it. YES, I KNOW, the drive only reads original disk -- I inserted the original disk, but this won't also be recognized.
The headunit is already open, I removed (and cleaned) the drive, but any try to got the DVD-drive reading won't work.
Is there any way to do the update with the SD-slot? Both discs are DVD-R-DL (so both are filled with each 8 GB).
I also made (for backup-reasons) a dump of my 40GB harddrive - then I tried to copy the files from the first disk to one of the partitions (most of them formatted with FAT32), but it won't do the update.
If there is no option to update from HDD/SD, I have two other ideas:
- get another BD0811 and temporary switch the DVD-drives (--> damn, even the carsellers here in .de won't trade A-classes)
- get an IDE/ATA DVD-Rom + flexcable-adapter.
I'm not sure, if one of this works, so I'd be glad, if one of you has some ideas to fix my problem. :'-(
