Thankl you all. In the meanwhile, I found out from Lexus service in Greece, that if you replace the NAV DVD player to another one and I quote "NAVIGATION ESU ASSY , serial number 86841-50101" , it would work for sure. They have installed it already on another US imported car and it worked fine. They suggested that I should try to find it on ebay or another site , or in a junk yard (most likely in Germany), because it is too expensive to buy it new. (something around 4.000 Euros). I have already looked for it but no luck yet. Do your research as well and we'll be in touch.

I have the factory NAV in my 08 GS450H and the RX400H it replaced. From What I have been reading regarding all the problems you would all be better off buying a Garmin 7500 street pilot for about $1,000 and putting it on the dashboard. The factory NAV is never used, but the backup camera and other display that come with the factory NAV make it worth while having, But buying a Garmin 7500 will solve your problem in the time it takes to plug it into the dash, I do a lot of driving between NY & SC and also drove a lot between NY and TX in the past. The Garmin beats the Lexus unit in performance and it will be cheaper and require less work than switching the Lexus to work in Europe

Does anyone found any solution with navi in europe (greece)??

Is there any download link where we can download the european dvd with the greek maps and after rip it to a dvd with ntsc code?

Is there any way that this will fix the problem???

Thank you in advance...
