New Nav disk reading "incompatible"?

[spoilednpimpin]

Question.

I have a 05 CS, have the 10.2004 version nav DVD in there.

Got my hands on the "PCM 2.1 DVD-Navigation North America" with a 10.2006 date on it (part # 997.642.257.04) and when I put it in my nav unit, it reads "incompatible disk"

any ideas?

You likely need a firmware update (done by your Porsche dealer).

I purchased a '05 and had to upgrade the DVD because my street and surrounding streets were not on the map even though I moved into my house in 1999. The upgrade came with a CD (not DVD) that I put in the CD player and it was a set-up program for the new DVD. A menu driven easy to use set-up that I did myself. I wonder if my set-up CD is compatible with your DVD?

By the way, these cars have the lamest nav system I've ever seen. My little 4" Garmin is more useful and easier to use that the Porsche - but, oh well, it came with the car and I'll make the most of it.

feel free to email me if you want me to check on that CD disk.

it may be the DVD hardware itself issue not compatible
