You have to use Mazda Toolbox and SD Card from your car with a PC.

Yes it is. As another forum member mentioned, you need to install the Mazda Toolbox on your computer and then use the SD card from your card to do the update. To install the Mazda Toolbox, please follow the instructions as given here: Attachment 8136

Turns out our 3-year map subscription ended on January 28, 2021. Mazda is selling a single map update for $85 or a 3-year subscription for $135. It is a bit over-prized but I am aware that there are cheaper options on Amazon or eBay. Also, my latest update was in September 2020, so at this time I will not update at all. I am sticking to Google maps most of the time anyways.

Compared to what I've seen other map updates going for, the three year subscription sounds like a pretty good deal. The TomTom map updates for my 2014 CX5 GT run $79 for a year's update service. My Jeep is about $150 per update and they come out about every 18-24 months. The Pioneer AVIC8000 NEX in my MX5 runs about $129 per year.

From what is being reported by folks on the Miata forum, if you've had a previous 3 year subscription that has expired, your only option for updates on the Mazda Nav system is to buy the offered single map update for $85 or a 3-year subscription for $135 from Mazda directly. If you buy a new Nav SD card for your system (eBay/Amazon, whatever), expecting that you'll now be able to get three free/included updates, you're going to be very disappointed. That new card will not update. It's all about the car's VIN. The Mazda system knows what you're up to and it will not allow it to happen.
On the other hand, if your Mazda never had Nav (like my MX-5) and you buy a Nav card (Amazon in my case), that card can be updated 3 times in the 3 year period.
YMMV

i know that you can buy an Mazda maps sd card online on Amazon but the issue is when you put the sd card in your car it will still register your vin number i think and it will still expire at the same time.. there has to be a work around somewhere
