Important information for 09 owners wanting to update.
I spoke with the service manager at my local Infiniti service dpt. (Harper Infiniti in Knoxville TN) and was told if you own an 09 (hard drive based system) and you purchase the update, you MUST have it installed within 3 days or the activation becomes invalid. Glad I asked because I work for the next seven days.
Also, Harper's charge for installing the update is $76.00 on top os the cost for the update.
Since I have an 09 and my maps are from 09, I'll go ahead and update them...reluctantly. I went to Nashville a few weeks ago and a lot had changed since my maps, especially the POI's. Almost every restaurant we picked from the POI's was long gone.

Just got my 2013 update DVDs in! Reading the directions it says the software update could take 90+ minutes! Has anyone ever updated their navi before and does it really take 90 minutes? I don't know how much I like having the car idle for 90 minutes and I don't have charger.

Well, I did the update (99.00 for "discounted maps" and 69.00 for my dealer to do the update - only way to do it on an 09 with HDD nav). There are a few things that are different locally as I would expect that have changed.
As far as a "firmware" update, the service manager told me there wasn't one for my car.... hmmm. So there is no new function/features/fixes that I can see.

YMMV on this I would think.

I just purchased the update and it has an application version update from what my 2010 had. The old version was X1U62025 and the new one is X1UC2004. I do not know what they changed or fixed.

I am thinking about picking up the 2014 maps. Anyone figure out the firmware aspect of the update yet? I am not sure why I still can not steam music in my 2008 when google maps sounds and other sounds stream just fine. I am hoping a firmware update will magically update this.
