ihparker Posted November 14, 2004 Posted November 14, 2004 I have a 2004 LS-430 that I purchased in February 2004. The car came with Navigation DVD version 3.1. Does anyone know if there is a newer version available?

SW03ES Posted December 4, 2004 Posted December 4, 2004 Yep I just heard this too. Lexus is replacing the nav DVDs free on the 04s because of some complaints...

Shouldn't the dealerships already have the new version? Is the DVD update coded according to the VIN#? http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index...CODE=12&CID=100 John
SW03ES Posted December 4, 2004 Posted December 4, 2004 No but I'm sure some VINs aren' effected by the recall.
GOLDPLATER Posted December 4, 2004 Posted December 4, 2004 Just called my local dealer. I spoke to the service dept. I was told the service dept will take care of ordering the DVD through their parts dept. When the DVD arrives, the parts dept will notify me & i can then schedule an appointment to get this update(free of course). My letter states this will only be a free upgrade until Dec. 31, 2004.

danxnguyen Posted December 6, 2004 Posted December 6, 2004 mine says that I have til Dec 2005 and not 2004. This makes sense since they should give us enough time to take our car in.

Does the letter indicate why they are updating it?

Although by nature map databases may contain a certain degree of inaccuracy, a noticeable decline in the precision of the map data was observed when directly compared to 2003 model year Navigation systems. In addition, these anomalies tended to be concentrated in particular areas" John
