There must be something wrong with your module. When I call using my phone and then say "transfer," I hear the ringtone through the car speakers.
 
I had to get my module replaced - it didn't take long and it was under warranty at the time (when my car was 2 years old)

Thats what I would expect to happen also. But for some reason when I call using my phone, then say transfer, HFL tells me there is no call to connect. I suppose I'll ask them to take a look at it when I get my oil change. Thanks!

That's not something you mentioned before!!! When I call from my handset, I need to wait until it starts ringing in the handset before giving the transfer command. If I give the command too early, it says "no call in progress"
 
If the same problem happens when you transfer the call after the handset starts ringing, then I'm stumped and think you should bring your car in.

Yes there is a newer dvd for it. If you have a 2004 you get an orange dvd. 00-03 models are the black dvd.
http://www.acuranavi.com has what you are looking for. Pretty easy to upgrade.

Sorry it is a 2000 and needs a black DVD. I was hoping to find a one year old version if anyone knows where I can find one
Thanks

www.acuranavi.com and ebay has some as well. 2.50 is the latest. Might want to wait since 2.60 is probably going to come out in a few months. Maybe in August or September.

2005 TL Navigation questions by pongima
Jun 29, 2008 (8:58 pm)

I just bought a used 2005 Acura TL and now notice that the small clock on the top display doesn't match the navigation time. Instruction manual says that clock cannot be set manually if car came with the Navigation option. Does anyone know how to match Nav clock with top display clock?
 
Also, the Navigation voice doesn't work. I've gone thru the manual and set everything that seems relevant. I notice that music gets muted and am assuming that the silence should be the Navigation voice. Do I need some software disc or something to get this working? I've never had a factory Navigation system before and am pretty ignorant.
 
Thanks in advance for any assistance

I have an '04 with nav and have not experienced your issues, so following are just some thoughts - no guarantees!!!
 
I think you can adjust the time on the nav unit. Go through the different screen setting and I think 1 is time and time zone. I had to change mine when daylight savings came early.
 
As for voice, 1st try this, when you think the system should be speaking to you (and on mine there is a "voice" button in the lower left of the screen to get it to speak), turn the radio volume dial to the right (turning upt he volume). If that doesn't work, work your way through the screens to see if there is a voice or volume setting.

XM Weather and Traffic Congestion by new2cars

I own a 2007 TL with nav. While my TL is being serviced today, the dealership gavef me a 2008 TSX loaner and I noticed that the nav system on this car has traffic congestion warnings and local weather forecasts. How cool is that? I had no idea that the Acuras had this function.
 
My 2007 TL nav definitely doesn't have this function. Or at least, I don't know how to use it. Is this is a new feature on the 2008 Acuras with nav? I am very curious if this is just a 2008 feature or if my '07 has the capabilities of accessing this information as well. Quite handy, I'll admit.
 
Thanks for your input!
