Subaru has changed all nav systems to Garmin except the Tribeca.
 
Not quite true. The 2011 Forester and Impreza (except WRX and STI) will offer a removable 4.3" TomTom unit as an option. The WRX, STI, Legacy, Outback and Tribeca use the same units from 2010. There's a pic of the TomTom unit in the link below, showing the Impreza interior.

It's also pictured in the 2011 Impreza brochure PDF below.

Going off-topic here, but I find it nice to see them add the Ruby Red Pearl color as an option on the Outback.

I bought the 5.0 version of the navigation for the Tribeca to replace version 3.0. I live in an area that has lots of new roads and they STILL aren't on this version. I'm not sure I see any difference at all. The POI's may be updated, I don't know because I didn't use them before.
 
If anyone is thinking of updating, I wouldn't recommend it.

Anyone from the East region would want to split the Navi upgrade with me in the West?

My navi system has gone out. Would installing a newer version solve this problem?

give us some more information for example what version are you using and when you say has gone out what exactly do you mean, whats on the screen? If you have anyone with newer version try it to see if its that before you buy it. But my feeling is that a hardware issue.

The version is listed in the title line: v1.1 2005-2006. The right half of the screen is black. The left half has the cautionary message about not using the system while driving, etc, but the letters are all scrunched together so they are barely legible. If I put the car in reverse the camera will work but there's a large vertical black bar in the middle of the screen. There is no access to the information on the screen, for example, the time of day. No access to the buttons on the dash as far as info (number of miles left for the remaining gas in the tank). I don't know anyone else who has a newer version. In fact, I don't know anyone who owns a Tribeca. Love this car!

#376 of 390 2006 Tribeca Questions by iasube

May 20, 2011 (6:59 am)

I'm looking to close a deal on a 2006 Tribeca w/ 78,000 miles with the Nav and DVD player.
 
Any advice out there on things to ask and look for?
 
Also, I was wondering, can you turn off the navigation screen or is it always on?
What are the different screen functions of that screen?
 
Am I looking to have a host of issues in regards to having these options?
