Navigation on 1999 Jap import E46 328i

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I've recently bought E46 328i originally from Japan.

I've found that it has DVD-based MK4 navigation system. Must be upgraded by owner in Japan recently. Am I right? I thought MK4 was available well after 1999.

By reading some articles written by Jochen, it seems that I need to change something (sorry. To be honest, I could not fully understand what Jochen wrote. I don't know much about cars. :-(

If I upgrade my navigation system so I can use in NZ, Do I need to get a new MK4 unit or can I keep my old one.

What do I need? Just a new DVD?

Thanks.

Yes, your nav CAN be made to work over here. But the nav computer needs to be replaced.

The Japs have a totally different system to NZ (and Rest of World)

All achieveable for <$2k

PM me for details
