Just checked, my maps are Q3 2011. Can buy Q3 2012 it says. There's no way in hell I'm paying $150 for maps from 2012 that should have came with my nav.

I tried a 2013 BRZ SD card and it WORKED!
I tried mine yesterday with that version and it still wouldn't read the SD card.

try fomatting the sd card using different file systems, FAT32, NTFS, exFAT. or the really old plain FAT file system. sometimes the manufacturer limits to only one file system. GL!

can't you copy the contents to your computer first, format the card, then copy the files back onto the formatted card?

Ok I just saw this new update. Will try again when I get home.
Hopefully this works. How does the dealership update these if we can get the software to read the card?

It worked! I was able to get it to see my SD Card and I was able to back it up! I found no updates, but my Maps are old......2011....and I saw Q3 2012 as the latest map. Is there anyway to get this map for free since I only had my car a few months?

I got my car in February, so I called my dealer to find out. Salesman told me to call SOA. It was a big waste of time. They told me even though I just got my car, my car was produced in September of last year. At that time the 2011 maps were the latest and I would have to purchase the 2012 if I wanted them. I will keep my eyes out for another way to update.
