Sat Nav update questions...
 

So anyone know when the update is going to happen? if so what is the price we will have to fork out? haha..

will speed cameras, red light cameras be included also will it be updated with locations and etc?

Its odd the Sat Nav sends me on a lap around my home in order to get into the driveway! it actually makes me drive past my home hahah..

You can get it for free at the dealer as soon as new 2010 models get shipped with it. My dealer said they do it as part of the service and he'll let me know when it's in. If a new buyer gets it with a 2010, they should rip an ISO of the disk....for off-site backup purposes of course. ;)

:iagree:

Exactly, for backup purposes. lol

Does the Z come with sat nav cd? all i got was a blank sat nav cd case:confused:

3700cc - Yes, the sat nav uses a DVD (not CD) and is located behind the driver seat.

what? the dvd is behind the driver's seat? or the player is behind the drivers seat? or for your car the dealer left the sat nav dvd behind the drivers seat for you?

I got an empty case in the glove box like 3700cc

Nah behind the drivers seat, there is that little shelf, if you pull the cover off the back wall under the strut bar (where the shelf is) the GPS DVD player is lurking there. Thats where the DVD is sitting in.

(yes I know I just confused a lot of people.... wall?)

Dude, how hard do you want to make it :rofl2:

Am I the only one who thinks it's a weird setup?

They should have had an SD card slot and used it that way, would be faster loading and take up a lot less space and you wouldn't hear a disk spinning behind your seat.

right, I cannot tell if you are sarcastic or if Nissan are completely retarded... Right now i'm going to assume you're just sarcastic.

Nah my stupid directions made it sound sarcastic. The GPS DVD drive is behind the drivers seat where the shelf is. If you pull off the cover (there is a little hole you can put a flathead screw driver into) you will find the drive there. Thats where the DVD goes for the GPS mapping. It isn't a DVD movie player or anything though.

:woot::woot:
YES, much better :rofl2:

Man with a hard drive in the car I thought they would have gone that way

Nope, yet again we got shafted with Australian 370z's lol we don't get the hard drive version :(

Evan being sarcastic?

Don't be ridiculous!!

If you go thru his past posts, you see that he would never be sarcastic to anyone else on the forum..............

Thanks Ronnie, you are one of the most amazing and inspirational people I have ever met, you just radiate utter beauty!! You are also a superb driver, I mean, I could never imagine someone of your calibre ever writing off a $70k car......... Keep up the good work, keep on trucking.

I'll reply to that after my claim has been approved....

so it's very hard for us to upgrade the gps...

why must nissan do their best to piss us off?

also explains why "a beautiful mind" didn't work when i shoved it in the in dash player... =)

Hahaha actually I think it's best none of us talk about it till it is approved..... fingers crossed tho...

Nah it's not too hard to change the dvd in there, It's a pretty quick job actually.

lol yeah first thing I looked for was the DVD logo on the dash when I saw my first 370..... there it was not..... lol

I agree!

I burnt the maddest mp3 dvd for my first road trip and it didn't work :(

Yeah thats what ***** me the most man..... I just want mp3 DVD's not stupid cd's.. This is one reason I miss my 350, because I had a DVD player and screen in there. It was perfect.



*also had nice wheels.......

So I guess the important question is, who's buying the first update? :hello:

Thread dig I know, but just in case there are any noobs (like me) around... my MY2012 AT has a DVD drive as part of the stereo (even plays movie disks), and according to the User Manual, this is where the Nav update discs are put when/if.
