RXinATL Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Does anyone know what the most current NAV version is out now and has a new one come out this year yet?

lexus10 Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I bought my RX late August 09. I assume it came with 8.1. Am I entitled to a complimentary 9.1 upgrade, or no chance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBman Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 would not hurt to ask, but I doubt it, unless you bargined for it in the sale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBman Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 does the 9.1 eliminate the sign in screen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude7629 Posted September 27, 2009 Author Share Posted September 27, 2009 does the 9.1 eliminate the sign in screen? YES YES, thank God, YES. That alone was worth 200 bucks. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigla Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 I have the V 8.1 nav disc and find it woefully inadequate. Frequently in well populated, older areas, it will not be able to provide guidance until it gets to a major highway or thoroughfare. Debating whether it's worth 200 to get an updated disc that might not be much better. Anyone else dissatisfied with their nav system guidance?

We have HDD navigation systems and the partition is slightly too small for the latest software. Lexus is (apparently) revising the software and will be releasing it in a month or so.

bainzey Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 does the 9.1 eliminate the sign in screen? YES YES, thank God, YES. That alone was worth 200 bucks. :) But the override to allow for input while moving is won't work... DOH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigla Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 krypttic, I have an 09. I just wonder whether getting the update is worth it since V 8.1 was so poor. I live in a community that is over 25 years old and yet they do not have the roads here in the Nav system. Larry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joepattie Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 we have a 2005 rx330. Ontario Lexus wants apx $500 to upgrade. Dealer said system has to be re-calibrated. Huh??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenslut Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 we have a 2005 rx330. Ontario Lexus wants apx $500 to upgrade. Dealer said system has to be re-calibrated. Huh??? You have a Generation 4 system according to this thread: http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=45858. There is nothing they need to do to re-calibrate. They are jerking you around and you should report them to Lexus corporate. The one from Sewell at $200 will take care of all the "calibrating" automatically. Just make sure prior to adding it to your cart that you choose Generation 4 as your "Size". Then install and it will update for you. Enjoy your extra $300.

It's the same exact disc your local dealer would sell you. Mine removed my 'I Agree' screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
