That's the only way I get it to look up designations right for me.

BTW, last I heard there have been no updates to the nav disc since the 2013 version came out in 2012. Is there anything newer?
We've used the factory nav for 130k+ miles over most of the US and Canada; I like it but will replace with aftermarket if there won't be any more updates. I don't mind an update every 2-3 years instead of yearly (saves me money), but after a while the lack of updates will be a deal killer.
I contacted a rep from gmnavdisc.com recently and was told that a new update from GM is due out in December. Hopefully she was correct

Thanks!

For the last 2 years, they have been saying that updates are released yearly, usually in the Fall. That was correct, except there have been no updates since the Fall of 2012.

Keeping my fingers crossed...
