Recently I got E70 X5 2007 with no factory navigation system. It has a information display, however not the 8.8" wide one but 6.5" one.
I also bought from Europe CCC navigation unit for this vehicle (the actual computer with CD and DVD drives built in) and widescreen 8.8".

I need help identifying part numbers or palce where I can buy two cables:

First is the cable between this CCC computer and Display 8.8" (LVDS Cable) and second is cable to connect fan on this CCC unit to the power.

Basically I was able to swap the screens 6.5" to 8.8" one and even without swapping main computers screen started to work.
After that I tried to swap original non-navigation coputer to CCC navigation one. Power cable and otical cables connector was OK but the cable which goes from the display does not fit to the connector of the CCC unit.
Also on this CCC unit there is small FAN which has a connector and nothing goes to this connector.

I was trying to find part number for this cable on the realoem.com but did not succeed :(

Please help if someone know where I can get these two cables. Especcially LVDS Cable for the screen.
Thank you in advance.

I have an 05' X5 4.8is with a Mk.4 navigation unit.

I like to have guidance to a destination for distance and time of arrival information but don't want to hear the voice giving directions. Is there a way to completely mute the navigation volume while it is giving route guidance?

Nav volume under settings is turned down completely and under the info menu I have Nav Min set to -9.

Thanks for any help in advance. ]]> Navigation System Driven http://www.xoutpost.com/electronics/navigation-system/75435-navigation-mute.html http://www.xoutpost.com/electronics/navigation-system/75423-dealer-killed-my-nav.html Wed, 01 Sep 2010 13:11:07 GMT Took my 2006 X3 (Mk4 Nav unit) in for an ongoing door leak problem.

They fix it and next day pick up the car and the Nav screen is down (I ALWAYS leave it on, so it normally pops up upon car start). Nav worked fine when I brought it in, now dead, and naturally the Dealer says "tough luck, not our fault. Nothing we did on the leak would affect the Nav" :rolleyes:

After a day it came back on briefly for about two starts, then stopped again for good. After reading some forums that recommended pulling the battery for 15 min., I tried unplugging the Nav unit itself in the trunk (blue plug). If I do that and plug back it, the unit will boot itself and work fine, maybe for 1 or 2 starts again, sometimes not. Seems to be some sort of I-buss wake on start problem? Would this still be in the Nav unit itself, or could something else on the I-buss cause this? Do I need to actually pull the battery or will the plug do the same thing (as in maybe the entire I-buss needs reset)?

Then my leak started again, went back to the dealer and talked with the service manager and apparently when it leaked before they had found some water in the bottom of the battery well!!!? I asked about them pulling the battery and frying the unti, but he said they just vacuumed out the water. Riiiiight! I say that's where the frying occurred, but no way to really prove it. Service manager naturally wanted to charge $4,000 to replace everything!

In the midst of all this, I also was able to update the firmware to V32 (4-1/60 to 4-1/100) in hopes of somehow fixing the Wake up problem, but didn't help. ]]> Navigation System Rustynuts http://www.xoutpost.com/electronics/navigation-system/75423-dealer-killed-my-nav.html http://www.xoutpost.com/electronics/navigation-system/75352-navcoder-help.html Sun, 29 Aug 2010 22:15:47 GMT Is there anyone on this boardthat has a NAVCODER?

I'll pay you for your time.

I have a 2001 BMW 740i. The navigation display is blank and has white lines flickering on it. The back light works on it. I have been reading this forum and I tried to troubleshoot what is wrong. I believe I have a bad navi computer. I believe I have a MK2 system. The weird thing is that, sometimes it random works for a few minutes and goes back to the blank screen. I have tried to update the OS but no luck. When I put in the disk, the on light just keeps blinking and and the cd in light does not light up. Also, the disk ejects. I'm not very knowledgeable about BMW as this is my first one. I'm trying to fix this myself and at the lowest cost. If anyone out there have any suggestion or advice, I will greatly appreciate it. Thank so much for talking your time reading my situation and thank you in advance for your help. ]]> Navigation System tlynguyen http://www.xoutpost.com/electronics/navigation-system/75282-blank-screen-need-help.html http://www.xoutpost.com/electronics/navigation-system/75278-how-burn-navi-update-cd.html Thu, 26 Aug 2010 10:51:37 GMT So i download the v32 file, and i unpacked it all, i have 2 files, a .Bin and a .Cue file.

Does any one know if the Emergency menu option (in red on the nav menu), can be enabled for non US cars, as we in the UK don't get this option.

I'd quite like it on mine. ]]> Navigation System ccfj1 http://www.xoutpost.com/electronics/navigation-system/75219-mk3-mk4-emergency-menu-option.html http://www.xoutpost.com/electronics/navigation-system/75216-radio-split-screen.html Tue, 24 Aug 2010 06:11:30 GMT Hey guys,
I'm looking to pick up an 06' X5 with nav and I'm already trying to figure out my first mod. I'm wanting to do the radio split screen so I got a copy of V26 and V31. So would I just upgrade to V31 and then down to V26 and then back to V31? Or do I need to go to a lower software version when downgrading? I have a copy of V21.1 as well. I'm not sure what version is on it currently since I'm picking it up on Saturday. Any help is appreciated.

When I insert the map or OS CD, it spits it out after a few seconds. The CDs don't have any scratches. I've even tried burning a new OS CD to see if it would work, but it had the same result. What could be the problem? Is it a bad laser? Can it be fixed?

If it can't be fixed easily, I may consider upgrading to an MK4. From what I've read on the forum, it should be an easy swap, correct? Where is the best place to find one for cheap?
