Sat Nav - speed cameras?

Hi guys. I did say I would have a lot of questions about my new purchase!

Is there any way of getting the sat nav to display speed cameras?

Also I remember reading on here a while ago a way to get apple car play. Mine is a 2014 - but can’t find that thread. Has anyone here added apple car play?

Thanks

You can get a set of .gpx files from Pocketgpsworld.com

Then you can put them on a usb stick, plug it into the usb socket in the centre console, and then use the upload poi function to get the camera locations in your sat nav.

You can then add an icon and a sound alert if you want.

That sounds perfect.... I just looked on the site though, and was a little overwhelmed with the options... not sure what to buy!!!

Might be worth checking if your Nav unit supports user loaded POIs first.

I can’t find an option on mine - MY16. I Also have an empty “Speed camera” folder on the map SD card that seems to be ignored.

Mine is a 64 plate, with the earlier sat nav (smaller screen buttons on each side) I don’t think this will work on the later cars.

I’m pretty sure that the Jaguar XF 2013 is the one to use.

I can’t remember where I got it from, but I also have all the whisky distillers in Scotland as POI’s in my sat nav! They were very useful on my tour of Scotland a couple of years ago.

Can you update the SAT Nav

Hi, does anyone know if you can update the Sat Nav please. My car is a 2015 plate but even the maps on a 2019 plate would be out of date as the whole infrastructure around me has changed this year. So just wondered how I might go about getting it updated and if anyone has any experience of doing this please?
