Carin Sat Nav Software Disc
« on: 10 February 2008, 20:18:56 »
I have the Carin SatNav system in my '98 Elite, I have up to date maps (2003), but need the later software.

I really want to upgrade it to have postcodes!

Does anyone have access to the latest software disc (240? i think) , i only need to errr 'borrow' the disc for a while!  ;)

My disc is of a similar date, my battery is as flat as a very flat thing so can't spit the disc out to check, but it will only do partial postcodes ie AB12 3D and then just gives options of where you might want to go. I usually find it's better to use the street name though.

I've just been out to my miggy and I've tryed to put in a full postcode and would only take a partial postcode ie; G78 2**
And thats the 2008 Teleatlas disc

I think its the system software that enables this.  Dont think it does full postcode, just partial, then gives a list of possible roads?

The system software disc (the one that allows you to change langauges) is different to the map disc

Is there a system software disc for the NavTeq units?

Mine is version: '200'

Jim - How accurate do you find the partial postcode system? As TB says, after the postcode is entered, does it give a list of roads with that postcode?
