Hi geekzoners, I purchased a used NZ-new X-trail Ti a few weeks ago and would like to update the maps on the NissanConnect Nav system as these are now 5 years old. After a bit of research, I found the Nissan Map Update Tool application, and have downloaded and installed to my PC.

 

From here, I am lost. The application does not recognise the SD-card containing the maps when I plug it in to my computer. Has anyone had any luck with this application or know another way of having these updated? I have never really used in-built maps before other than CarPlay, and the Nissan integration seems great. 

 

Instructions here https://apps.nissan.navshop.com/en_gb/support.html#navigation

 

I have registered online with an account, selected NZ etc https://apps.nissan.navshop.com/en_nz/

 

Has anyone had any luck using this application?

Only two years late, but it may help someone else. The mapupdates app is for nav head units that do not have SD cards in them. I am unsure if the app has maps for outside of the North American Market as I haven't got my hands on the new 2021 head units yet. For the older headunits with SD card, you will need to buy a new SD card from TomTom or Nissan directly (through the dealer). TomTom is MUCH cheaper than Nissan (approx NZ$150 vs NZ$800). 

 

This is the Link for TomTom's Australasia shop - https://navshop.com.au/collections/nissan
