I heard a couple of stories where the dealer charged an extra 2 hours of labor on top of the update cost because that's how long it takes to install the 5 DVDs. The tech spends about 2 minutes per DVD actually working on it (i.e. swapping it out for the next disc) totaling 10 minutes of actual labor

![]() pull the fuse once you get the ESCL replaced... I take pics of mileage, too, and I make sure someone in authority knows this before I leave the car. That way they know it's their a$$ if something is amiss. I want valet mode so bad. I'm working with a tuner nearby on the new ECUtek software. They have a track Z they've been working with, and were looking for a street Z to build their tune in the new software. The multiple tune feature is still in development but will be available to me once it is finished and released by ECUtek. Hopefully I can get my car to them next weekend; they want $175 for the license and everything else is free ![]()

glad to hear i'm not the only one who does that lol i bitched about the mileage they tried saying they had to take it from the shop to the dealership shop (they have 2 shops due to volume of cars they sell/service) to reset the the power windows......which i have done myself with the window switches if the windows screw up. so thats BS lol $175 is a great price ![]()

They'll replace it with a Rev D, which had documented failures prior to the recall. I have a 2011 with Rev D, and I pulled my fuse last fall. I'm not in the recall.

In a 2009, unfortunately, yes. You'll have to go to the dealer

2010 and newer models do not have to go into the dealer. You order the upgrade DVDs, and you can do the update yourself with an activation code provided when you purchase the upgrade.

Is there a separate firmware update for the 2010 370z OEM STEREO with Nav? I keep having to refresh my xm signal from there website every time I start the car. This just started happening after I transferred my subscription over from sirius. Radio memory is fine it's just the satellite. I thought maybe there was a firmware update?

This thread caused me to start looking at updating my NAV. Turns out the maps are on sale through to June 30th!

The 09 updates are done via CD or USB?
If we could gain access to what media they use for the updates, then you can do it yourself usually.

the way it works is i go on nissan's website pay them 150 (99 on sale right now) for a activation code. go to a dealer who has the newest verison, give them the code, guy hits install, and i get popped for a hour of labor or more for him to do nothing at all. i seriously would love to figure out a way around that. ![]() i hate delaerships. i dont trust them. never will.

Need to find someone who works at a dealership and get a copy of the install file.
Or, if the later models are CD based can we copy the data to a USB drive and use it that way.
