Just wanted to say a big thanks to hlcst for his help.

For us DNX520 owners I thought I'd place the latest updates for 2015 for the Headunit, Nav and 2015 Maps all in one place. It's a 4gb download and instructions are inside.

Let me know if you have any issues downloading.

I realize this was posted some time ago, but is there any chance you could update the download so i can update my satnav.

cheers

Hi everybody

I know this is a quite old topic, I tried to follow the three steps but I was unable to complete step 2 (Garmin upgrade).
I followed all the instructions, tried with different SD card but nothing happened.
Do you have any hint for me?

Another question  :signLOL:
How big can be the map mini SD? I was able to use the 2015 maps but not the 2017 ones using a 32GB SD card, maybe I need to buy an (GB sd card?

thanks a lot !!!

I know this thread is old, but the software won't auto update if it's already on the latest version.

Multimedia Software Update - version 1.4.0
Bluetooth Software Update - version 4.0
Navigation Software - verion 2.52

I just put the 2015 maps from the google drive upload and it works fine for me.

I'm going to test tomorrow with the latest maps from http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl/ using osm_generic_gmapsupp.zip and the newer style

There is no replacement for displacement....
But a turbo does help....

Both files work fine from a SDcard formatted with fat 32.

It's much faster, tho i'm unsure if that is the SDCard as it's a class 10, or the maps are smaller in size (the inbuilt is europe where as these maps are just UK)

Hi

I've just bought a car with this Kenwood in, and it has very old maps.
When I wanted to update them, I found that both Kenwood and Garmin dont support it anymore :confused:
But I see there is hope, unfortunately Im not good at it, so I need to have it step by step as a kid with no references :)
I have, not quit sure how, updated the software to vers. 1.4.0
I cant get the BT updated, and if I download the maps from "open..." to a SD Card, nothing happens when I start it up, and it still only have the Garmin EU 2010?

My data at the moment:
Kenwood DNX520VBT
Multimedia Software Update - version 1.4.0
Bluetooth Software Update - version 3.60
Navigation Software - version 2.20 (I think...)
Map version - CN Europe NT 2010.20
SD Card - ScanDisk Extreme Plus 32Gb HC1 V30 U3 A1

I would like to have maps from 2018 or newer, if possible.
First plan was a RDC-330/360 from Aliexpress, but a friend said that it would give me more problems, than just using Google maps on my phone.

Hope you can guide me...
Have a great day!
Michael

Hi, I know this is an old thread..

Im trying to update my Kenwood DNX520VBT.

Ive tried downloading the 1.4 file from kenwood, I unzip and it shows a .ruf file and .img file.
I have tried to burn this using nero & imgburn but they both say invalid file.

So does anybody happen to have the img file that works, preferably the latest version which I assume is the (now) dead link above.

Thanks in advance
