It's most likely a complete image though, not a patch set or partial.

What do all of you mean with this "press and hold the ACC button...." Does it mean just to start the car and the proceed? And is it necessary to listen to a CD during the update?

No - you do not need to listen to a CD but it will not interfer (nor will listening to XM has been reported) with the upgrade.

But yah, 12MB of freakin' code is a little daunting. But hey, gotta start somewhere. LOL

Doing it that way makes it fool proof as the car has minimal to no chance of shutting down on its on if already running.

Is that the way it is supposed to be?
Maybe my internal timer is off? My vision was working when the DIC displayed Accessory Mode after a couple seconds of pushing

Is anyone willing to part with their update discs?
I've posted in a couple different places on the forum with no avail.
My CD burner died and I can't burn the discs so I would love to do the update but I can't.
Can anyone help me?

Any thoughts? Did the mods not take? The Nav still works, the radio still works.
