hello
My name is Diana and Iam new on this site. i'm been having trouble searching for an updated map version for my nav system for years. every year I try to find an upgraded version that my pathfinder would be compatible with. its disappointing and frustrating. the version I have is a 5.5 but I know that's not an updated version. I've heard infinity maps can work on my navigation but i'm not sure if its true. I would like to purchase or know where to find a 2012/2013 map update.

please please help!
sincerely

Version 5.5 is the most up-to-date version available for the CD-based navigation unit. It's the same CD for Infiniti and Nissan versions.

You are stuck with 5.5 which was last updated in 2005.

Unfortunately, your only option is an aftermarket navigation system and that's easier said than done. Your only option to replace it is to convert the car to a non-navi setup since the climate is integrated into the navigation system. This involves a whole lot of work, including replacing your radio, support frame, and installing the non-navi climate control unit. It's not plug and play and requires extensive rewiring by a professional or someone who can read the schematic and match the wires up. It's not impossible and is fairly straightforward, but it's almost not worth doing.

Here's a link to one of the few people who actually did the conversion.
