Updating the navigation software on a MKIII computer requires a Key CD. You want the file called " SW 3-1/00 (version 32)" from here: e39source.com/d...
The link to the key CD that I mention in the video:

You will need to extract the .ZIP file, and then burn the extracted files to a CD. If you have a MKIII navigation computer, I highly recommend doing this even though you might not need it, depending on your software version.
If you're looking to update a MKIV, Ryan's video may have more detail!

Surprising at what a difference that was.
The interface now looks the exact same as the Nav in my dad's 2007 X3! What an improvement!
I downloaded the file that you mentioned in the description. The only problem that I noticed during the burn process was that my cd/ dvd burner doesn't support slower burning speeds than 8x. I will try to burn a cd on a different computer and will post my results here. Thank you for your help and time!
What a great job and thank you for posting this! I'm about to do the same to my newly acquired MK3 that is nicely tucked away in my e38 750iL.
As far as I understood from the video and everything you wrote. I can install this modified V32 software on MK3. It will change my logo, day and night mode, and 3 D.But the software will fit on V23, or V22 on the display will write SW 3-1 / 63 or 1/65.
V32 is MKIV only. The latest for the MKIII is V23, SW 3-1/63.
MK4 update is still worth doing. Even though you can put v32 on a Mk3, you wont get perspective mode.
Thanks for instructional post! Quick question...did you use the file you referenced above, which has Mode2/Form1 in the description, or the one with "Camera Alerts, M Logo" in the description? Thanks!
Hello, am I right in thinking there is no point updating to a mk4 unit now? Previously this was the advice if you wanted the perspective view and 7 digit post code search (uk). But now, because you can update to v32 there is no need to buy and install the mk4 unit? Bit confused...
So, instead of trying to burn another cd with the same file, I burned v25 with speed 8x. This time my bmw computer recognized it and updated the software and at the end asked for the key cd. Everything is ok now and my screen looks just like yours, only it has a BMW logo instead of a M logo. It includes 2 color sets, split screen option and everything else. So I wanted to ask about the difference between the file in the description and the v25 ?!
Any reason the download for the MKIII V32 is down? I found it on Neil Oakley’s website, but now I’m worried about this, I just got my MKIII and Nav retrofit to work perfect.
Downloads are working for me! www.e39source.com/downloads/
E39Source Thanks, I just did the software update, everything works perfectly on my MKIII
@@andrewmattera6205 so this modified V32 working on MK 3.
@@divdivic8120 it was for me when i did it. tbh i shouldn't have messed with it, i liked the version that came with my mkiii better than the latest version, never could find a way to go back tho
@@andrewmattera6205You can go back to V22, it is the last one for MK3. But why is it better than the old software, this V32 modified gives day-night mod option, and 3 d and M logo.
i have bmw e46 2001 and bmw monitor with navigation can i update it or what i need to do it thanks
i have BMW e38 i bought it from japan,,, but the front computer of the navigation system is strange as it has this name "DVD navigation system II", in addition if i go to Set and look on to the top right of the wide screen i can not see any software version,,, i have downloaded the software V32 night mode and burnt it using IMG and when i inserted it in the navigation module nothing happen, could you please explain what is solution for this issue and how to recoganize the software version...... regards
I really want one of those headunits in my car... Anyone know how much work it is to install one?
A lot, just did mine, took about 14 hours for me to install the retrofit harness and the instructions are rarely ever clear
@@andrewmattera6205 haha, 7 years later and I get a reply! 3 E39s since then, but I ended up mounting a Eonon unit in the one I have now
Great video! But something went wrong when i was updating my MK3 computer on my 2001 e39 530d. So I burned the cue file on a entirely new cd - r and put it in the navi cd slot in the trunk. It was recognized but never got to place where it should update, instead the computer showed - The inserted CD is defected and ejected the cd. After this the looks of my computer screen had changed a little but it didn't look like yours. I tried to insert other cd s and still the same. Any advice?
Thanks! I did the upgrade, and after being prompted to put in the key cd, nothing happened and now my screen doesnt turn on. Any way to reset the system, or did I permanently screw something up? Thanks again.
I did the same. The software has been updated, but now I have "Bitte Key-CD oder V17 einlegen." I downloaded the CD-Key from e39source, but the CD-Key does not help, the unit ejects the CD after a while. On the PC there is no content on the disc, as if it was empty. It should be?
I have no experience with the MKIII computer. I recommend upgrading to the MKIV.
Will the MK3 only work with the software labeled MK3 only, or will it also work with the software with M splash screen and camera alert?
I don't know, I don't own an MKIII. This is Todd's video and he used the mode2 form1 copy, which I believe... is the only one that will work.
how to make key cd with img burn ????
I have never done it. I think you just select the .cue file and burn that, it will expand the other content onto the disk as well.
My MK3 navi keeps spitting the disc back out after a minute. Thoughts? I did burn it and verify the disc on the lowest burn speed available.
When it was doing that for me, it was because I burnt the software to a DVD buy accident, instead of a CD! The MKIII can only read CDs.
@@E39Source I went and purchased CDs just for this :) I haven't had any blank cds laying around in years. It's def burned on CDs. Any other thoughts?
@@dzlnitro If the burn was done correctly, with the correct firmware, on a CD- and it still doesn't work- I can only surmise that you have a bad CD reader in the navigation computer itself. You'd be best off to replace it with a MKIV form ebay, if that is the case.
Hey there! I posted my questions about the software quite a while ago and got all the answers from you. I have been using the new software for quite some time now and there have not been any problems. But now it is winter time in my region and I noticed that my original webasto is not working. Can this problem be connected with updating my MK3 software?
You should update your MKIII software any way you look at it, referencing neiloakley.com. And about the other question... what in the world is a webasto?!
***** Webasto is an engine heater, which starts to work even if the car is not working.
i downloaded everything correctly and upgraded it but i dont get the M Logo at startup is there a reason why? i tried to download the other file that says M logo on it but it doesnt download at all. can you please help? please and thank you
The links on your website dont work i need the cd-key link and the software link for mk3 pls fix this
The links do work, but not in some (mobile) browsers. Please try Chrome or Safari on a laptop/desktop computer.
is only in English and Spanish on the update or German etc.
my bmw 1 series don't have navigation how I can download one please thank you
You cant, you have it, or you don't have it.
My 2002 BMW X5's screen is black and it flashes randomly at times, the radio works but stops after a few minutes. how can i update or make it back to normal??
I would upgrade it like the guy did here, and than downgrade it (if you want) but if the installation did not succeed, I don't know if you can use it at all
Hi, my update get like yours, but in the link below, there is no CD key. Can you send me another, because I cant't find it?
e39source.com/archives/797 everything is here.
i got problem with key cd i burned image file 1.3 mb but not worked
Burn the .cue file only.
what first must INSERT key cd or software ?? AND doy you have last version with Stock BMW softwareStock for MK3 thank you
Software first, Key CD later if necessary. We don't host much MKIII software, I strongly recommend upgrading to the MKIV computer and going with V32.
v32 have for mk3 or no ? sorry for bad english i am from Bulgaria
V23 is the latest available MKIII software I believe. We offer that file at www.e39source.com/downloads
kk thanks !!!! for fast answer!!
the cd just pops out again after like 5 sec, any ideas?
Never seen that happen. Bad burn maybe?
nice video, very helpful, any chance you could make me a copy of the Key CD? Im not able to get a clean file and am getting the "please insert key CD....." display. let me know, thanks!
Instructions for the Key CD are on our website.
only seeing MKIII: SW 3-1/63 (V23) on your website. Is this the v32 for MKIII?
That is the latest version available for the MKIII. V32 is MKIV only.
@@E39Source can i use V32 modified for my MK3
@@divdivic8120 No, V32 is MKIV -ONLY-.
@@E39Source But what software did you use here in this video where you update the MK 3 and get the M logo and day-night mode and the 3 d option,
@@divdivic8120 The V23 version I offer is custom, with the M logo.
The link to the key CD is not working !
My apologies! I have fixed the link.
@@E39Source Great thanks, in case any of my friends still have a MK III unit.

Follow our article. e39source.com/archives/797
Hi there i insert my burned cd, and its nothing happens.... trying with ignition on and on pos 1 and nothing(version 32 by the link) any ideas? dead nav computer or bad cd?
+Pavel Makevic V32 is for MKIV only. MKIV doesn't need a key CD. MKIII won't read DVDs or V32.
+E39Source I just follow by links, might can you give me link with correct newest version to update my mk3? cuz allready burned 5 cd's and nothing gonna happens
+Pavel Makevic We really don't support the MKIII, they're much harder to deal with. And the updates barely did anything vs what it came with I believe. I highly, highly, highly recommend upgrading to a MKIV.
is it necessary to have a map disc to be able to do this update?
No. It will update fine without it!
i downloaded the link and its ONLY in german!!! i cant change to english. i tried everything
+omar k I have never used a MKIII computer before. The link we supply is supposed to be in English or have the option. Some people say it works, some people claim its only in German. I can't test the files myself because I don't have a MKIII.
+omar k HI Guys i just found this site . i will be grabbing the navi update for the car. bmwnavipro.com/
