Is there any update coming allowing you to use the NAV while driving? I just got my G35 a month ago and this is awful. I travel with my wife and she usually runs the NAV, but there is no way to scroll or do much while driving. My NUVI did this fine and cost $200. If I want a restaurant, are we supposed to stop on the side of the road somwhere to search? With 2 people in the car this is rediculous. There should be a toggle like with the seatbelt that recognizes someone else in the car and allows a bypass of the NAV/Music Box limitations while driving.

Not from Infiniti, but yes, there is a solution coming for the lockouts.
I don't have the info on hand but have it at home.
There is a fix coming which will require a little work inside the center stack and a little soldering, but once complete, the legal agreement upon startup as well as all lockouts will be disabled.
I'm on it as soon as it's available and will post details when I can

Just purchased a g35x Sport. Do you like the car ? Is the navi totally useless or just annoying.What about Music Box while driving. I'm having second thoughts.

I find none of it annoying and I'm 100% satisfied with my purchase, even 1 year later.
Yeah, some things could be enabled while driving, but I have a work-around for that anyway...
 
So far, that car has met all of my expectations.

Missing the Tire Pressure Display by alang4

I've been reading the owner's manual for my new G35x w/ Prem ad Nav, and it's showing that there's a display setting for the tire pressure. However, I've been through all of the menus and have not been able to find it.
 
Is anyone else missing this setting in their car?

KP Technologies is coming out with a new module which will do away with these limitations.
It requires the removal of the navi motherboard and a few wires have to be soldered in. Yeah, this sounds scary, but I've seen the board and the solder points. The contacts are not too close together and honestly, anyone could do it.
 
Once installed, it is only activated by holding the center Enter button on the console for 2 seconds and an audible beep will be heard. Once activated, you will no longer need to hit the Enter button when the car is started to accept the Navi legal agreement and it has other benefits. MusicBox and Navi functions, usually locked out by movement, will no longer be disabled. This means that you will be able to search and enter addresses and POIs, change system settings, as well as scroll through music entries.
It can disabled at any time by again holding the Enter button for 2 seconds.
 
I know it's a little scary to some, but KP Technologies has an awesome track record and offers a lot of nifty little toys to make our cars that much better. Their products are top notch, well tested before being released, and the service and support makes them highly recommended by those who have their products.
 
No, I don't work for them, and quite honestly, I'm still on the fence about pulling out my navi unit and soldering things in.
I'll wait for the guinea pigs who are first in line to go through this, and I'll learn from their mistakes.

The tire pressure sensors will send a signal to the car if a low pressure situation is detected.
What you get is a little light on the cluster telling you that a tire is low. The light looks like a low tire with a ! in the center of it.
You will not see individual pressures for each tire as in the Acura TL, and the light only comes on when a low pressure tire is detected.

Yup, I'm awaiting the results as well. Heck mine's a lease and I'm probably going to do this to it. It's really not that hard a mod. Taking the nav center out is the toughest bit, imo.
