I forget the exact firmware versions, but there is a 5.1 that allows the software override, and there's a 5.1 that doesn't. 5.1 refers to the map data, not the firmware - sorry for the confusion.

I'm 95% sure that what happened is that the dealer performed the navigation TSIB (which corrects an error where sometimes your Nav icon is in a radically different position), and the TSIB eliminates the software override. Sorry.

^ LOL, I'm going to assume that was sarcasm. You have a few options: 1. Buy an old version of the nav disc with the original firmware, shouldn't be too hard to find. 2. Perform the DIY nav hack with destination entry switch (this will void your warranty). 3. Buy a plug n play override module for ~$300 (keeps your warranty in tact). Prestigious Society carries them.
