Anyone here have a 2011 Gracenote Media Database Update disc p/n 25962370 (for UAV Nav Radio) they no longer require and would like to provide/sell to me? If so please send me a PM. Thanks. :thumbsup:
It's on the way.rudeboyspi said:Hi does anyone have a 2011 gracenote disk?. please PM me if you do. Thanks.
Thanks BriggZ for the DVD. I installed it and willing to pass it on to the next person if anyone wants it. Hey is the 2011 navigation DVD worth the $199 it cost? I am not sure if I want to pay that much for a navigation DVD upgrade.BriggZ said:It's on the way.
That's hard to say. I wasn't sure what version was installed since it was pre owned so I wanted to update so I new what I had. I'm thinking every other year is good enough for me for what they are charging. Also it was a pain in the butt to update...problem with the disk they are supplying. They took them off the market and I don't think they are selling them again yet. I'd wait until you read a post that the new discs are working without any problems because if the update stops loading before it is complete then your Nav system is inop until it loads 100%.... Takes 2+ hours to load. I was lucky, I got mine to load after the third disk. And there is no sharing. You need a code that is tied to your Vin # that is supplied when buy the disc from GM.rudeboyspi said:Thanks BriggZ for the DVD.

Did you ask him for the update? If so, please PM me when you're done with it...Pdabs said:Rudeboy you got a pm.
I did. You got it.jeffc83 said:Did you ask him for the update? If so, please PM me when you're done with it...
Thanks for the info BriggZ. I will ship that DVD to pdabs, hopefully tomorrow. The problem is that my 08 Cadillac cts didn't come with nav. I retrofit nav to my CTS. It took some work but all done. So I'm not sure how that vin issue would come in play. I know that the hdd is coded with my car vin#. I will wait until 2012 DVD comes out and after it is tested by others.BriggZ said:That's hard to say.

Well the grace notes only upgrade the software that runs everything but the nav data. The nav data is for like $250+ and that update the map info. I haven't done a map upgrade because I don't want to pay $250 unless I have to.08 CTS4 said:When upgrading the "Gracenote" option with the new disc, does this also update the "Navigation", or is that a separate disc ?
I'm getting ready to partake in a St Louis to Yellowstone park roadtrip in Aug and would like to have my Nav updated for the trip.
I as the rest would be interrested in obtaining whatever disc is needed to perform that upgrade, and would be willing to purchase it if nessecary.
I bought my 08' CPO last Feb, and thought they may have updated it at the time of purchase, but just not sure ?
Also what is involved in upgrading the Nav portion, and how long does it take ?
thanks
That would be bad. I love this nav and would hope that Cadillac would continue with update or better interface.tinman said:The only reason I am interested in the nav update is that I have heard rumors this may be the last update for our cars. CUE is on the way, and we will probably be kicked to the side of the road.
It's an update for the CD audio track info...name of band, song name, etc. I personally thought it would update my songs on the HDD with proper titles but it only updates the list for CD info.grcoulter said:Anyone tell me what "gracenotes" are?
Not a problem. If you play a lot of new CDs, the track names will appear. I went for the NAV update at 175...that's worth it!grcoulter said:Thanks Jeff!!! I guess I don't really need that(i don't think??).
