#191 of 205 How to get turn by turn directions by nboerner Oct 25, 2009 (6:03 pm)
I just got my 2010 Sienna and I am not sure how to get the nav to display turn by turn directions. The manual shows and icon like a pie with a piece highlighted and the other half a few rectangular bars but that icon does not appear when i am using the nav, does it only come up on certain occasions and what would they be. Also, It seems sometimes when I am driving I get the telephone dialer to work (the keypad) I thought it was suppose to deactivate when driving. Does it work at low speeds or when you have your foot on the brake but are still in drive? I know I have dialed while driving. Replies to this message: mdchachi (Nov 06, 2009 7:12 am)
#192 of 205 Better than a Garmin? by davemcdonald4 Oct 26, 2009 (7:44 am)
Is the Nav system on a 2010 Sienna XLE better (more accurate) than a Garmin Nuvi?
#193 of 205 not better than nuvi by nboerner Oct 26, 2009 (9:54 am)
so far i have to say the nuvi is better. it gives you street names where the toyota doesn't except for freeways. The newer nuvi has a mode to show buildings and the toyota doesn't. I also find the nuvi to be a lot more user friendly. the toyota does a lot of strange split screen things automatically. maybe i will change my mind after using the toyota more.

Replying to: nboerner (Oct 26, 2009 9:54 am) I agree, but built-in systems do have dead-reckoning, so if you enter a tunnel it doesn't complain about a lost signal like a Garmin will.
#195 of 205 Wrong directions & unlocking by macvan Oct 29, 2009 (8:18 pm)
My 2006 Toyota nav system recently started giving me the wrong directions, or would tell me I was somewhere I was not (like in the middle of the ocean). Toyota dealer doesn't know what to do. Is there a reset? Would it work to disconnect battery?   Also, not clear on the best way to get the system to override the lock (to enter direction when driving)?   Thanks Replies to this message: mdchachi (Nov 06, 2009 10:15 am)
#196 of 205 navigation stoped working by abell5 Oct 31, 2009 (1:48 pm)
I bought my sienna a few months ago and when i bought it the navigation worked just fine. Then about a week ago I went to use the navigation it kept saying "please insert the DVD disc" or something about a DVD disc. The radio works and the CD player works just fine. The dealership says that an update DVD for it is available but that the old software should still work. I am puzzled about why it will not work. Any ideas?

Replying to: abell5 (Oct 31, 2009 1:48 pm) Same thing happened to mine. Did you replace yours? Replies to this message: crawdaddy2666 (Nov 06, 2009 9:25 am)

Replying to: nboerner (Oct 25, 2009 6:03 pm) It will show turn-by-turn directions automatically after you enter a destination. Or do you mean you want to see the turn list? If so, you can press the button on the bottom left side of the screen (just above the zoom-in button) then select "Turn List". If you can't see your current position (pie-like icon) press the Map button.   Yes, you can dial when going very low speeds. Once you speed up, you'll see the keyboard become disabled.

Replying to: klaudiadang (Nov 06, 2009 4:19 am) My navigation system in my 2006 Toyota Sienna has the same issue. We took it to Toyota and were told it would cost $3000.00 to have it looked at. To have a new navigation system installed would be $5000.00.   Just curious, did you recently replace your battery? Someone else said they had the same issue when they replaced their battery. I think that is when my system started to act up as well.   I wonder how many others are having navigation system issues?????
