I'm hoping someone here can confirm if this CD will be compatible with my 2008 250SE-L and allow me access to more recent maps/data.   https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/165154121474 . I appreciate it's probably a copy [since the Seller has a few for sale]. I've emailed him as suggested in the listing but am waiting to see if he responds.

The reason for updating is I tried to input an address to 'Destinations' but, the property being a recent build, it refused to recognise it.  :wallbash:  In the past I've used a TomTom for navigation but would prefer to use the in-car equipment.

I've watched the YouTube videos on how to swap out the disc and it looks very simple, the current disc [according to the head unit] reads "07-08 Ver.1 West". This seems to cover most of Europe inc the UK and would do me fine.  I appreciate some say it's a pretty useless system as installed but I don't want to resort to a stand-alone 3rd party marque of my smartphone.

Thanks in advance, and if anyone has a redundant, more recent disc than mine which'll do as an update......:wink:

Hi, I can't confirm it's compatability but what I will say is a 17/18 update disc will not be up to date. 

Yes compared to what is in our cars already but that's not hard. It's going to be at least five years out of date at best. 

The system is clunky anyway that's why most use other means to navigate such as map apps on their phones or upgraded head unit. Teyes, Grom etc. 

Best of luck with the update if compatible and maybe let us know how upto date it is for you.
