TAVALEX Posted May 23, 2005 Author Share Posted May 23, 2005 Hi again, yes I've tried many European disks provided by Lexua France or Lexus Switzerland but it doesn't work, it's made by another company and is not compatible with the US NAV.. I asked my dealer in the USA and they have no idea what to do, I'm thinking of forwarding my request to Toyota Japan but I must get a reliable contact... anybody had this kind of problem before ?

1990LS400 Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Could this issue possibly be related to the various "region codes" for DVD video players. DVD players made for one region code will often not play video DVD's encoded for another. The U.S. and Europe are in different regions.
