Djski Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 I just took delivery of an Edge SEL with the voice activated DVD Nav System. I live in Germany and the US Map is useless to me at this time. Is there a Pioneer European Map DVD compatible with this system? If so, how can I get it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just imported a Lincoln MKX (copy of the Ford Edge with the same navigation system) to the UK and I'm looking for a European DVD. But apparently nobody is able to provide such a DVD.... Have you been able to find a DVD yet? Regards Pej Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Talionis Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 http://www.navteq.com/ these guys provided the DVDs.. have you looked on their site for a/the foreign DVD you need? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pejmanahadi Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 Sure, they sent me a letter and said: Due to the fact, that NAVTEQ does not produce any DVD maps for Ford Europe, we do not have any European maps for your navigationsystem in our program." Also Ford (US and Europe) answered me the same. The Ford (US) DVD navigation system has the Ford part# 8L7T-18K931-BC (http://www.lincolnvscadillac.com/showthread.php?t=41366) and is actually a Pioneer device. However, also Pioneer (US and Europe) denied my requests for European DVDs. I guess there might be a compatible DVD in Europe wich has the needed format. The question is just wich one is it.......??? We can't test the 20+ different DVD maps on the market. I think we must know which DVD is compatible and very likely we additionaly have to change something on the device. Like a software update or hardware upgrade to get it working with European DVDs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbyz95 Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 There are a bunch of torrent downloads for map dvd's when you do a search on "navteq map dvd europe" or similar. Takes a little finesse to compile but they're free. This link looked interesting: http://www.sharevirus.com/viewtopic.php?f=...98&p=272915 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdgeEurofan Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 I have my Ford Edge in the U.S and just relocated to Sweden. I love it and would like to ship it, Is it difficult to import it to the European Union? Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you been able to find a DVD yet? Regards Pej I just moved from Canada to Austria, and am trying to register / insure my Edge (2008 Limited). I need to change the tail-lights to correspond with the European standards, and am wondering if anyone can help me by telling me where they got theirs, as well as the cost (ballpark)? Thank you!!!
