My BMW Navigator VI is possessed

[darrell]

]If my research is correct and my memory still functions as I hope it is I believe the Nav VI was released in the 2nd quarter of 2017. So maybe that is why all are loaded with 2017.2.

Are you thinking your unit was made in 2017 instead of 2020?
What's the build date on the box?

They didn't ship this replacement in a box just the unit and new battery telling me to keep the other items and remove the battery that came with the original unit. My 2nd unit came in a box with the full kit of everything included. I'm guessing plastic parts of the units are made someplace/screens another place and then shipped someplace else for the internal components and maybe even another to load the software.

All I know this 3rd one loaded software and map updates. I'll get a chance to drive the pickup using it if I go someplace other then the health club. If it fails I'll just call and get another sent to me. I have my Nav V as a backup if it fails and I need it when traveling.
