Navagation Version? by tnuts

I recently purcahsed a 2007 TL Type S and was wondering how do I find out what version disk I have and what year it is? Reason I ask is that my brother bought a brand new car 2 months prior to mine and his had a 2005 dvd disc with his nav system. He did some calling and got the upgrade that he should of gotten when he bought the car to begin with?

I don't know if there's a way to chck by scrolling through the menues, but you can go into the trunk and remove it from the drive back there. In my '04, it's kept towards the front right of the trunk.

Just bought a TL w/NAV, I looked at the disk in the trunk and it is a 06 version. Should it be an 07?

I don't think so - it takes time to make the disc, so I bet most '07s have discs from 2006.

Navigation screen doesn't come up during start by airahu

I have a 2001 TL and just upgraded the DVD at the suggestion of the dealer because I was having trouble getting the navigation system screen to display. I would have to turn the car off and on four or five times (sometimes more) before the display would come up. The new DVD didn't solve the problem. I still have to turn the ignition key three or four times to get the screen to come up. And when the screen does display the nav system seems to lag behind the car more than it did with the older DVD. Has anyone else experienced this problem and is there a fix besides reprogramming to the old DVD?

The same thing is happening to me. I brought my mdx in and they told me to upgrade the dvd. When that didn't work they told me they checked the connections, but they could see no problem. They suggested I buy a new system for $3,300.00. There must be a better solution.

That's what the dealer told me too. My car is six years old now so there is no way I'm spending that kind of money. I bought a Tom Tom system that works as well for less than $500 and I can take it in any car I own.

Did you ever get the problem with your navi on your Acura fixed? I'm having problems with the screen on my 01 CL and I'd love a solution.

Navigation screen cracked by netleo

Hello!
I have the following question: my navigation screen is cracked by accident. Everything is working though and I can still see the screen and all the controls work as normal. The only thing is broken is the screen itlself so I have to use buttons and knob to enter address, switch channels, etc. Therefore, I just cannot use touch screen feature anymore. Is there any way to replace just the screen? If not, what other alternatives I can look for besides paying $2000+ for the whole system replacement as dealership does?
Thanks in advance for your response.
Leo.
