The sat nav discs for the Mk2 and Mk3 are the same cd format.
Its only the Mk4 that has different discs.

Before finding another unit, have you tried cleaning up your current one?

Has it got water damage? My one in the ZT had water damage, so I took it all apart, cleaned it with a toothbrush and a bit of spirits (not to leave residue) left it to dry overnight put it allback together and plugged it in and it now works fine.

Just an idea to save you a few bob.
