But i did get a CD with the car (though havent tried it). Am i being naive in thinking i can put the CD in and install the satnav? Seems a big piece of kit just for sat nav.

WPAWS Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 if the cd? should be a DVD disk is the maps then ya just pop it in m8 and leave it in mmi will detect you have inserted the disc and fire up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critical_mass Posted July 17, 2018 Author Share Posted July 17, 2018 Can i play music on an app of my choice AND use for phone calls through the Dension500bt? The car did come with a BT phone like gadget that connects to a port in the central arm rest. It works, but i find my phone doesnt auto connect to it and I i cant play music through it. Ill do some research into the devices youve listed. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critical_mass Posted July 18, 2018 Author Share Posted July 18, 2018 It certainly is. The engine and car feels so refined, still feels new despite it being 10 years old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it plug directly in using the cable in the glove box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
