I have a 2009 and disconnected the battery. The clock came back on but I noticed the dates is the wrong month and year is 2002 when you press on the clock. Is thsi the same issue that this fix would repair? also different question but the sirius xm does not connect to their server and cannot find out the reason. The dealer said the xm module or whatever its called hardly ever goes and does not think this is the problem.

The 'fix' will correct the date, and should prevent it from happening in the future if you disconnect the battery again. Can't help you with the sirius problem.

I had an issue with my 2007 C6 connecting the SiriusXM when I bought it about a month ago. I called SiriusXM's tech support and it took them about 10 minutes but they were able to get me connected and no problems since.

I sent the one I had made and asked that it be passed forward to anyone that needed it after they were finished with it. They have them on the e- site if you want to go that route. I'm in Canada, so it is expensive to ship anything to the US. I'm sure someone can help you out locally. The download of the file, extracting it and burning to a CD-R is fairly simple if you have a burner in a desktop. Libraries have desktops with burners and staff can help you out if you are really stuck.
Good Luck

I wanted to add, the file you downloaded is a compressed Zip file, that has to be unzipped, or uncompressed first, before you burn the CD.

Can you help me by sending an email containing the zip file for running the time in the car screen .. thank you

I think I can Private Message you the zip file, but you need to enable private messages in your user control panel. Once you’ve done that, PM me, and I’ll try to message you the file.

It has been successfully updated and the time is still not working. And the map system I have does not work because there is no special disk in the map of the Arabian Gulf. Please help me to get the maps

Can’t explain why the time problem after the fix was applied, but the only NAV maps I’m aware of were for North America, and Europe. And those maps are now going on 8 years out of date. Best bet is to upgrade the head unit with one that has a gps with maps for your locale, or use your cell phone’s navigation capabilities.

I was answering a member from Canada as above.
I'm not certain that Denso makes a map for the middle East. I'm afraid that your best bet may be aftermarket or try to reach out to Denso to ask if they made the DVD for the Middle East for the C6
https://www.denso.com/ae/en/about-us...ormation/dsmn/

Denso did make the DVD for Europe
DVD and Countries available in the pack:
DVD 1: Western Europe
Andorra, France, Portugal, Republic of Ireland, Spain, Monaco, United Kingdom
DVD 2: Eastern Europe
Austria, Belgium, Switzerland, Czech Republic, Germany, Denmark, Finland, Italy, Lichtenstein, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, San Marino, Sweden, Vatican City

Does anyone still have the 245_135A.iso file? The Google Drive link doesn't work any more.

If you are asking for the Loading.KWI file to fix the date stamp for the Nav unit, I just downloaded it from a thread from years ago. I just updated a spare Nav unit and the date went from March 2003 to Nov 2022
Zip file(https://tis2web.akama i.gm.com/radio/..._05_10_fix.zip)
Unzip and copy the Loading.Kwi file on a CD-R
