Evening All
Spoke to my local LR dealer today ref the upgrade/dowmload to enable use of the satnav while on the move in my 2005 D3
They quoted me £100 + vat to do the download  , has anyone else had this done and if so what was the damage from LR
Tks

about a year ago I was quoted £90 for mine but in the end the nice LR dealer included it with other work being done at no charge.

taken from one of many threads on the subject...
[
From the normal nav screen press the on-screen button on the bottom left. When you get the next screen (two black boxes with text etc) press and hold the screen at the top between the two boxes. Hold it for about 5 seconds and you'll get a keypad pop up. Type in 1791, press ok, then press the return key (top right).
You now have nav on the move..... until you turn the car off. Has to be redone each time you start the car but can be done at any stage, on the move or stationary and even when a route is already set up.
There's a thread with screen pics somewhere.

Look for 1791 within the site. The solution is a lot cheaper albeit less convenient than £100 !
Cheers,
Christoff.

You'll probably find your dealer is amenable to discounting the price a bit if you ask them to do it at the same time as other work, e.g. a service or some warranty work. I got a deal I was happy with that included my 60k service, the satnav upgrade, the phone book over bluetooth upgrade and a couple of warranty items.
Edit: Like TazDaz just said

Depending on what version disk you have will depend on whether you can use the "1791" hack
Mine was upgraded for free by the way  G4 Gone ...but not forgotten
