Sd navigation card.

I just realized i had bought & returned a bad card from this same source early last year
Actually, this newer one was shipped from the same location, but may not be the same seller.
? -> 2 different sellers, selling badly hacked GM nav cards, both from Hawthorne, Ca <- 🤔 ?

You know, I have a tendency to look up the actual address of the sellers to see if those are actual legit addresses even if they are listed as in USA. (I would not even bother if they list China.)
Use the Google Map street view.
I have caught those sellers using fake addresses for far too many times than I care to count.
For example, a seller used street number 37 when the street view clearly shows there is 35 and 39 with absolutely NOTHING in between.

Appears to be a 'Shipito' package shipping business, in this case.
Several businesses probably have accounts/PO type 'boxes' there and use the location as a 'shipping' address.
 
This card is missing the hidden 'ADCKJZ_DRACDS_VANELET_ERUTANGIS_DENALI.SIN.sys' file that most of my previous version cards had 😒
...so, i'm guessing right off the bat this will be rejected - not sure how i can control that problem before inserting it in the vehicle.

They sent it with the labels unattached, so they're not insinuating that it's an original.
I believe this card may have actually worked, if they hadn't missed copying that .SYS file over. Hard to believe they had the know-how to hack the CId, but then just simply missed a hidden 107 byte file. Almost wish i'd kept it, copied that file over & tried it 🤔


GMnavdisc.navigation has the newest #86531529 for $100+ now. I'll let y'all know how that goes...
This v.2023, latest update, seems to be working as well as the last couple updates from HERE which also didn't include our Regals in the compatibility list.
 
Ordered v.2024, GM part #85713512 for $112.26 from HERE (which also doesn't include our Regals in the compatibility list).

It works on my 2020 Sportback. It's same update that works for a CT5, I don't know why they are misleading and don't include the Regals on the list but the updated map version works.

Probably because they no longer care about Regal owners. We're an extinct species of buyer

It's shortsighted since it means losing potential sales of the map updates. It would be easy for them to just add it to the list on the website and be done with it. OTOH at least people in the know aren't totally left out in the cold on the updates. These should be available for a long time.
 
My guess is somewhere in the connection with GM, GMnavdisc doesn't want the responsibility for distributing/refunding a product that GM doesn't assure them is compatible. GM's not going to bother verifying it for GMnavdisc's sake, because

GMnavdisc's not going to invest in testing the compatibility with additional unlisted vehicles - not enough potential sales of a specific map update.

It says $99.99 + $3.95 shipping.
Did you get robbed or is your state's sale tax over 8%? 😱
And the best part is, we have less then 3 months of 2024 left. Did the map come out late or did I miss something? 😅

I think the updates for '24 came out around June or July. Maybe not a good data point buy my '24 CT5 was built in February, it still came with the 2023 map version SD card.

This one is newest update, info 3 map update-v.2024
After reading through all 11 pages of this post, I ordered this one. Put it in my 2019 sportback, did the vin lock, and all seemed to be great. New roads around me were showing up, and changed speed limits were properly indicated. Then I tried to ask the voice system to find a business (have OnStar safe and sound). It comes back saying "Oh, I cannot complete your navigation request right now. Please try again later". After a few days of no response, I put old card back in, and voice response is working fine. Put new one back in, same negative response. What was strange is that if I asked it to take me home, it had no issues plotting out the route to my home. Has anyone experienced this issue? Do I need to have Onstar reset something on my Regal?
