2009 V8V HDD Sat Nav - Maps Upgrade
Hey everyone,
I just finished updating the maps on my 2009 V8V hard drive disk (HDD) sat nav system. I ordered the Volvo DVD for around $200. Here's the link for the 2011/2012 North America maps:

The Volvo part # is 31326249 1122. I suggest ordering from Navteq's webiste directly. If you go to a Volvo dealership, they will charge you $285, instead of $200.
A few things to note:
- The update process takes almost 3 hours
, so you best do it while driving or while your car is plugged to a battery tender.
- The update process can be done in stages. You don't have to do it all at once. The update process simply resumes where it left off.
- The AM startup logo will NOT be replaced by a Volvo logo
. It appears that our sat nav systems do at least have some AM firmware built in.
- The interface (e.g., home page) does look updated.
- Not sure if we previously had this option, but the updated maps seem to have added the ability to view things in 3D.
A few pics are attached.

is the 2008 the same as the 2007. I have been wanting to update my 2007 V8V but I have just been putting it off.
I believe urs model use a different navi system from my 10 and the 09... The person writes this post should use the same navi as mine. Waiting for his reply...
I posted a link to that one in a recent thread but you can find it here. This is the set you need for the non-HDD navs. This is for the 2005 XC90 vs the 2009 (which is HDD based). The XC90 actually went to the HDD system in 2007.

I brought the same one as him, but nothing happened after put it into CD...
