I kind of have the same issue but am at more of a loss. I want to upgrade by maps and have not done so since i started the lease. The current dvd is W41 data ver4.2. I would like to get the most recent maps and it would be very nice t0

1) hit "I agree" every time and just let it start up. and 2

2) be enable to enter in addresses while the car is moving (i assume this is overrideing the lockout.

Also, mentioned was the VAIS Soundlinq SL2i has a neat little feature that enables you to skip the "I agree" button on the nav system when the car starts up. what is that??

I went to Lexus and get them install an iPod adapter for me today. I'm happy to tell you that they installed VAIS Soundlinq SL2i. SL2i overwrites "i agree" screen after 5 second but does not enables destination entry screen while driving.

I have 2004 ES 300 with navigation, 6CD changer, iPod Touch & the latest Nav DVD

wolfielexus:

I have PDF's of the 05 Nav system. email me at cmayback at hotmail .com and I'll fwd them.

Also, there is no bluetooth in an '05. Only '06 or later.

Could you post that PDF to the forum, you'll see a browse/upload button when you post a message.

It just occurred to me that I haven't emptied the tank fully yet. I've been filling up around half tank so i really don't know my actual mile/per tank. Questions:

- How do you reset the computer?

- what's your estimated range reading on full tank?

- what's the difference between two average mpg readings then?

- Hold down the 'disp' button on the steering wheel for a few seconds to reset (you have to change to the other screens & do the same).

- I'm in Canada....so my range after fill up says 515 - 525 km's usually (320 - 325 miles) which is still not correct.

- One is 'instant' MPG & the other is 'overall' MPG since you last reset it.

Take some time & read through the owners manual cover to cover.....you would be suprised what's in there (have you found the feature that you can open all windows & the sunroof without even getting in the car yet?) ;)

Mine has only Mode and Reset buttons on steering wheel, based on user manual range resets only when I re-fuel. BTW: the second AVG was MPH not MPG, anyhow i read/thought both were avg MPG, my mistake.

I purchased a 2004 ES330 about 2 moths ago. It's a great car and I'm really happy about it.

One thing started to bother me: discrepancy between average MPG (19-28) and estimated range (295 mi on full tank) numbers on the dashboard. First of all display shows 2 average range numbers, I believe one is for city other is highway, please correct me if I'm wrong. If I'm making 19 MPG then I should get at least 330 mile (on 17.5 gal). Assume that my combined MPG is 24, then i should see 400+ but I don't. BTW: I use 87 octane from Costco. I believe 87 should be fine, am I wrong?

Could you please post your "estimated range" readings and type of fuel that you use?
