NAV Update

What I would like to know is how one can obtain any reasonable update for the Jaguar Nav systems. I have a 2003 XKR Conv., with a Nav system that is so out of date for my area so as to be useless. I have resorted to using my smartphone - but it would be nice to be able to use the built-in.

The Jaguar CD-changer is pretty much only compatible with the Jaguar head units.
They use D2B which is not the same as the Alpine AI-Net.
So if you want a changer you would have to buy a new one...

The older XK uses a COMPLETELY different system than the X350.
If you made a quick search of the XK section of this forum you would find your question has been asked many times before & there are a couple of extensive threads explaining why there are no updates available.
