Providing the solution for anyone coming to this post with the same problem as I did.

My problem was that the filesystem became corrupted and so the boot manager was not able to start the software.
This was identifiable by connecting the device to the computer and noticing that the main drive did not have any contents and error messages were displayed.
After backing up an image of the complete device, I had to format the device (which erases all contents) and copying a new version of the software and maps.
Don't know if this is important, but I've used the original label "NAVIGON" when I formatted the disk.

I followed this guide on how to install the Software:

I obtained the software from here:

And the maps and nfs files from here, in the respective order:
[Please Register or Login to download file]

Both maps and nfs files are stored uncompressed under NAVIGON\map, inside the contents of the software package linked above.

After copying all files to the main drive, ejecting it (wait for the safe to remove message) and removing the cable, the GPS rebooted and started working perfectly.

Hope this helps someone out there in the same position as myself: both Seat and Garmin don't support the device and Seat only offers brand new devices for over 400€.

Cheers!

Unfortunately the links in this guide don't work anymore. And I seem to have lost my local copies.
I'd suggest that anyone coming across this post in the future contact Garmin Support and request the files. The must have them archived somewhere. I anyone succeeds in this endeavour, please let me know, so I can update the post with fresh links.

Update:
I contacted Garmin Support who was actually able to help me solve the problem. They sent me the following guide which, after I strictly followed it through, reset my device to factory defaults:

To repair your device please follow these steps:
  1. You need to have a microSD card that fits into your device
    (The smaller the better - please use a card that is not larger than 16GB)
  2. Put the card into the device
  3. Connect the device via USB cable with your computer
  4. Wait until the device is shown as mass storage device in your file explorer
  5. Check that the memory card is formatted as FAT32 with master boot record (MBR)
  6. Download the repair tool using this URL: [Please Register or Login to download file]
  7. Unpack the ZIP archive
  8. Copy the "UpdateMe.exe" from the archive onto the root of the memory card
  9. Eject the device from the computer and unplug the USB cable
  10. The device will now reboot...
  11. Let the device reboot - this will take some seconds - after that a message appears, that the device will reboot in some seconds...
  12. Wait until this second reboot has performed as well and the device is showing the white screen with the error message that the software cannot be started
  13. Press and hold the power button until the display turns off
  14. Eject the memory card from the device - it is no longer needed
    (the "UpdateMe.exe" is already deleted from the memory card after it have performed well)
  15. Connect the device again via USB cable with your computer
  16. Press the power button to turn the device on and wait until the device is shown as mass storage device in your file explorer
  17. The device is now empty and in the correct format and you can perform a "device restore"
  18. After that the device should boot up with "Connect me to your new car" to do the pairing.
  19. Double check with Fresh if there are additional software or map updates available and install them
  20. Now everything is done and you can use your device again

Regarding the format of the SD-card, this actually turned out more difficult than expected - at least for me. At first I connected my 2GB SD-card to the navigation device and even though my Mac told it to be FAT32 formatted, the whole procedure didn't solve the problem. I then took the card to a Windows machine, formatted it to FAT32 with MBR and reinserted it into the device, restarting the procedure. This second time it succeeded.

I hope this will help others as it helped me.
Stay safe out there.

Hi, you have PIDv2_FlashRepair.zip ? Link die :(

I have a Garmin 4NSF. When I connect the device to my PC via USB in preboot mode, I see one partition of size 0 bytes. I think the flash memory in the navigation is damaged. I think to repair memory, I need the PIDv2_FlashRepair.zip file. Please help
