Replying to: mgroomer (Aug 07, 2008 7:40 pm) This is probably too late to help you but we purchased a 2007 Odyssey touring over a year ago. really likde the bells and whistles - love the nav system but being a long term Tom Tom user, i would not purchase a nav system from Honda. here is why - Nav comes in the entertainment package which is very expensive. Also the Touring only comes with run flat tires. BAD DEAL!!!! run flat tires only get 25,000 to 27,000 miles before replacement and they cost just over $1,000. Better deal is to buy model below the Touring. go out and buy a Tom Tom for $200 to $300 bucks, get personal DVD players to hang on the back of the seats, and put a good set of Michelin tires on the first time you change tires at 40,000 miles plus. this will save you about $6,000 to $8,000 dollars.

Does anyone know if the 2008 Odyssey's navigation screen folds down like the 2009? Thanks for responding! Replies to this message: sebring95 (Sep 22, 2008 7:33 am) npalagummi (Sep 24, 2008 9:08 am)

#887 of 963 06 Odyssey Nav asking for pin by perki Sep 25, 2008 (4:59 pm)
Today I went shopping and when I stared the van the Nav system came up asking for a pin #. I have never put one in and it will not do anything. Can someone help? Replies to this message: richarddavies (Sep 25, 2008 5:28 pm) spacecadet0 (Oct 04, 2008 11:57 am)

Replying to: perki (Sep 25, 2008 4:59 pm) There is an anti-theft "security code" for the radio and the navigation that must be entered if the battery goes dead or the power to the device is cut. You should have been given the codes when you bought the vehicle. If not, you'll probably have to contact your dealer. Or do a Google search on honda navi security code and see what you can find.

Replying to: mapman4 (Aug 23, 2008 11:23 am) This might be new with the 2008 model, but you don't have to buy the run flat tires with the Touring model. Also, the touring is the only way you can get the auto lift rear hatch, which is a great feature when you are dealing with kids and all that comes along with them.   I love almost everything about this car including the entertainment system, although we've only used it once. My only really big complaint is about the nav system. It does have features I really like, but it can't find things like Home Depot and other major locations by name in the county I live in.   The dealer says all the need is an updated disc but I'm not convinced. Anyone else having this problem?

Replying to: mgroomer (Aug 07, 2008 7:40 pm) Not sure if you bought you van yet. Depending on the model you buy the nav system will be standard. I just bought a 2008 Touring. I love 99.9% of it. I enjoy the voice commands and use them regularly. I think it just takes some getting used to. Also, the touring model is the only one with the auto lift hatch, which was the only thing on my must have list. You don't have the get the run flat tires on the touring model. The blue tooth is great. My son loves talking to his grandparents while we are on the road.   My one complaint and I'm trying to figure this out with Honda is the GPS. Granted it has nice features, but can't find a lot of pretty big things by name. For example it can't find a CostCo, HomeDepot, Lowes and many others in the county I live in.   The dealer looked at the 2009 model and found that the nav had the same problem. My $200 Garmin never failed me, but my $2,000 nav system makes me nervous every time I have to use it.
