mk3 is a cd reader the mk4 is the dvd reader, not read of an upgrade for the mk3 to turn it to a dvd reader, sorry. i suppose if there was one we would all have it rather than have to buy the expensive mk4.

In a word, no. It's not just the lens assembly, but the whole mechanism, and the drive electronics. It's kind of like saying you can upgrade a 1.8 to a V8 by changing the air filter.

You just need to get an up to date CD for your drive. Are you sure you have a Mk3 as we fitted a Mk2 at the Nano.
