Holy sh!t thats expensive!

I recently set up my olds with the latest maps for Aus and UK on their Tomtom, and it set them back less than $150 for both countries!

Could you not buy the Whereis maps for another device cheaper and DIY them onto the Presara's SD card?

In fact it seems Tomtom uses Whereis maps, so buying them cheap from Tomtom and putting them on your Presara's card should be pretty straight forward.

Oh why oh why would anyone buy it then? For that price you might as well buy a high end GPS device or for way more half than that price buy updated maps for your GPS device.

Well yes whilst it true you cold buy a new Navman, Tomtom or Garmin every couple of years for he price of the update but the reality is if your car has the 7inch touch screen indash system you arent actually going to buy an aftermarket satnav that's just stupid and pointless? Also the Where IS software in the factory system tends to be a little clevier and on the money then the aftermarket units but yes why it's so exxy i have no idea, we'd sell three times as many if it was half the price!

To me, at the current price being asked for the update disc, it's literally price gouging on the part of the vendors. Those of us with the factory sat nav are pretty much a captive market, really. So, if you want to keep your maps updated, be prepared to lose limbs and appendages in exchange for the privilege. As for the software in the factory system tending to be a bit cleverer, I'd disagree actually.

Take for example Garmin GPS's. They are pretty bloody accurate atm, and now the lifetime updates come bundled as a bonus with the purchase of unit. This equates to 4 updates per year, for however many years the unit will last you. More bang for your buck, if you ask me......... I have the Garmin 1450T and, I hate to say it, but it absolutely ****s on the factory sat nav in my Presara. If I'm heading somewhere where I've never been before, I use the Garmin, even though the factory sat nav is there. I have Ver. 16 of the maps on the factory satnav atm.

Yes, my Garmin only has a 5" screen and the factory display is 7" but this still doesn't make up for the lack of functionality, REAL TIME SPEED display, spoken street names, red light camera warnings, real time traffic advisory service.... etc etc... the list goes on.

$2500 factory sat nav vs $400 Garmin (including lifetime updates)? Heck of a price to pay for integrated navigation aids in the console that looks pretty and cool and "works" with the rest of the onboard tech.:g:

Just my 2c worth.

Cheers,

BB

PS - Pity the 7 inch screen can't be used as an TV/DVD/Blue Ray/PC display....

PPS - One thing I WILL give the factory Sat Nav is that it seems to work better while I'm going through the Graham Farmer tunnel...... Does it have inbuilt gyros to keep spatial orientation? If it does, this is an advantage over any portable GPS unit.

The factory GPS is connected to a gyro, and the speed sensor.

There is a seller who sells it for $300. No much difference though.

By the way do you know if Lexus one (PZQ86-00211) is the same?

Lexus and Toyota GPS DVD's are the same, and will work with either vehicle.

Mmm i remember reading something on this sometime ago and something is telling me that for some reason you can’t use the Lexus one in a Toyota and vice-versa but can’t be 100% positive now :g:

It's working in my Presara, and my friend's RX350.

Ver. 17 is not available yet. When it is available, you'll find all the information here. (Usually about March/April)

Interesting... I bought a new ZR6 with Sat Nav, picked up on 12 Feb and it had V17 installed. A couple of months later I received an e-mail from Whereis (they do the maps etc) to say that the V17 was now available. I'm always sending them updates to the maps... I checked out the DVD in the car and it says that it's made in Japan (by Toyota)!

Whereis have V17 (Australia only) for $295 - http://www.whereisma...ls&deviceid=252

The Denso one that's in my car is V17_R6 which includes NZ. If you aren't taking your car to NZ...

Is there any way of updating maps without spending $300? That price is just a bit silly. My 2008 zr6 could probably do with a maps update soon....

      200 series won’t shift past 4th gear

      Hi everyone, new to this forum - refugee from LCOOL. Having read some of the replies, to the best of my knowledge there is no such thing as a minor remap. Toyota in their wisdom have the software in the ECU such that it cannot be downloaded, modified and reloaded. It has to be a complete reload, either stock or modified. All you fellows disconnecting the battery is a good and simple way to try and reset everything but similar results can be achieved by simply disconnecting the ECU. That's the big plug in the firewall passenger side. Meanwhile I may need to start a new topic for the following issues I am experiencing: Had a minor shudder when applying the brakes. Also was somewhat intermittent. Having over 100k on the clock a lot which were done towing a big van, I thought I may have warped a disk. Checked them with a dial gauge but no useful info. Bit the bullet and replaced all 4 with new slotted rotors and pads from DBA. Huge difference in braking. However the shudder has return almost with a vengeance. Thought I fixed the problem when I disconnected the ECU for another unrelated issue. ECU is remapped, car went in limp mode and could not clear it with the scangauge. Problem not fixed and I am lost as to why this is happening. Plan on visiting Berima Diesel later on this year to have the injectors checked and I'll get them to look at the brakes if I still haven't figured it out. Any suggestions would be welcomed. Thank you

      G’day from NSW

      G’day All just got a 2012 (old shape) Corolla Ascent Hatchback Auto. Needs a few things done, it was my Dads who just passed away. Going to install pioneer head unit (basic one really) as a start, then maybe upgrade speakers but I’ll see how the oem ones go, I’ve read I’ll need at least 50w ones for the pioneer. Front inner plastic guards are a bit trashed along with bumper bar, just need to neaten it up a little. cheers Sparky

      Head Unit Replacement for 2010 Toyota Corolla Hatch

      G’day TGA, hope you got this sorted, just about any 2 din would fit. I’m putting a pioneer one in but I’d like to know how to pull the trims apart to fit it 🤨 Every video shows the sedan with a different gearshift with short trims to remove but those 2 lower side ones are 1 piece on the hatch and I’m struggling. Do I need to remove console box to start removing those side piece. Any help cheers Sparky

      Landcruiser 200 GPS

      I am sure many owners of Landcruiser 200s have had the same experience as me where the GPS has led me into the wrong roads. I’ve had two Landcruisers, a 2013 model and currently have a 2021 model. Both vehicles had/have poor GPSs. Even Toyota personnel agree with this. so I am considering replacing it with an after market unit. I don’t want one which relies on mobile phone connection. I am looking at a unit sold by Brummstadt. The link is https://www.brummstadt.com.au/products/toyota-land-cruiser-200-series-2016-2022-premium-head-unit-upgrade-kit-radio-infotainment-system-with-wired-wireless-apple-carplay-and-android-auto-compatibility I would appreciate any feedback from any owner who has taken this step. thanks, Bob See https://www.brummstadt.com.au/products/toyota-land-cruiser-200-series-2016-2022-premium-head-unit-upgrade-kit-radio-infotainment-system-with-wired-wireless-apple-carplay-and-android-auto-compatibility

      Aurion "wobble"

      Since last year I've been getting quite terrible wheel wobble between 60-70 mph on the expressway. Sort of notice it however way less evident now and again going more slow. Recently got crankshaft belt and flash fittings changed at a repairman I believe that accomplishes great work. This began occurring after I got excessively blissful doing doughnuts in the colder time of year and knock a snow bank tapping a road sign haha... I figured I twisted something in the driver side suspension...lower control arm, tie bar, and so on yet repairman said everything was straight and tight, bushings alright, no spillage on them or swaggers. He said perhaps a wheel arrangement would fix it. I maintain that should do swaggers in any case cause the ride isn't quite as smooth as it used to be. Contemplations? Assuming I get an arrangement would it be advisable for me to do the swaggers first or is that all the more with supplanting the lower control arm?

      Oil Pipe Leak

      I'd be surprised if they expect you to pay for it as it is a recall issue. Glad it's been checked out before it's too late though.
