More 2010 370Z AU changes...
 
Im gonna post the things I find different and worth mentioning compared to my 2009 370Z.

Believe it or not, the pocket behind the seat(s) is no longer there! No space for my Manual anymore :(

I also can't remember the old Z exactly, but the material behind the seat is now a furry Grey material.

The Sat Nav is definately updated. I've only had the car a few hours but I haven't noticed any red light notifications yet.

There are funky icons telling me of fuel, food places etc that appear near each turn that I need to make.

The muffler looks to be made from a different shinier metal than the MY09's muffler.

Hi Majestic,

Does the exhaust sound any different?

Cheers,

Ronnie time for you to burn up the updated nav cd ;p

Burn!

gumpy 05-02-2010 11:15 PM

yeah and post the iso up =) though it sounds like it's a mission trying to get to the dvd unit behind the seat to install the thing

Gazza 05-03-2010 02:42 AM

The Nav DVD is an Updated version - no 16 - & it's quite simple to get to it, just pull the fold down pocket (behind the drivers seat) as far down as it will go & then pull it towards you - its a bit like the fitting on the sun visor it just clips in - then all you need is a flat blade screwdriver to remove the cover in front of the DVD player....Simple really!!

Yes and no. It definately sounds quieter and restricted but this is most likely due to my wear in period and because I can't go past 4K Rpm.

Evan did mention to Darren that it sounded different....

Shhh no illegal stuff pplZ!

If i were to hypothetically do it, Darren said that it
might brick your Nav...

Who's gonna be the Guinea Piggy?

Gazza 05-03-2010 03:25 AM

I've just done a round trip to Taree & back in the last 3 days - stayed at Port Macquarie Sat & Sunday nights & did a trip to Taree for lunch on Sunday, got back at 3pm this arvo - with 2005 k's on the dial - I think I've just completed my run-in period.... Goes in for her first service at 8.00 am tomorrow, trip went like a dream - had to kiss 5000 revs a couple of times but did it gently.... Never missed a beat...!! The 370Z is a dream machine......!! All praise be to NISSAN...

I'll just ask the dealer first if it's that easy. We may need separate firmware disks. This could just be the maps.


I'll still try it! :tup:

evse82 05-03-2010 07:22 AM

I'll try it lol... There won't be any chance of bricking it.

Like every other device, the firmware will be loaded onto the unit via a different method (ie. not just putting in the map DVD and turning it on). The DVD will only contain the maps for the unit. So this one will just be the updated version of the current maps.

The new firmware would be nice though too....... I don't think it'll be possible though, from what I've read elsewhere the nav units are now different, so most likely will have different version codes....

So far I've only seen one new phone option menu and the icons with each turn off.

I'm not 100% sure about the extra option as I didn't have my Old z for awhile...

Hey Gazza

Stop following me around, I went up to Port Macquarie on the weekend also. Stayed up on Saturday night at The Observatory in Williams street. I was thinking how many 370s call Port home. So, on Saturday there were two extras for the night.

I had a smooth trip up and back except for the 80kph construction zone up to Heron Creek. Like you I have my service reminders up for the 1000k service, unlike you I will book in later for the Nissan trained tech to wipe his greasy hands all over the car and take it for a quick burn around the block.:shakes head:

Amazing!! - We stayed at the Mantra Quayside at the other end of William St on the corner of Short St - It's a small world isn't it....Pity we hadn't posted our trips up on this forum - we could have met up & had a good chat about all things Zed......!! So how far is Lake Macquarie from Port Macquarie..?
