I am looking at purchasing an 06 RL. If I get the updated CD, does it bring it up to the same features as the new RL's?
 
Yes, it will use the same updated info as the new RL's. I can't say it will have all the same features, but it will have the same database of information.
  
For example, will it announce the name of the street that you have to turn on to.
     
It will not announce the name of the street you have to turn on, unless it's a major highway. It will show on the screen the name of the street you have to turn on.

I have a 2005 Acura RL which I am planning to ship to Europe for a few months
I am told that the navigation system will not work even if you put the European maps dics in it. That's weird because I know Europe uses the same GPS system and ACura RL exists in Europe under Honda Legend badge and it is an identical car .
Does anybody know if there is a way to tweak the system so that it would work for Europe. ?

#14 of 21 Can I upgrade the base navigation system by anandvv

Feb 27, 2010 (9:45 pm)

I bought an 09 Acura RL recently and it does not have the tecnology package. The in car entertainment display shows me my GPS location at all times, but, the system does not have the maps and directional navigational functionality. Does anyone know how to update the functionality so I can get the navigation features? Is it even possible?

I just bought 2010 RL and am disappointed with the screen on the navigation system. In daylight, with sunglasses on, the screen is almost impossible to read. I previously owned an 05 and had no problem. Has any one had a similar experience? Does anyone know about any fix? Acura wasn't any help.

What did you learn about this? I am considering the purchase of a 2008 RL w/o navigation and want to know if I can retrofit the navi system. Thanks.

I have an 08 RL...I love the car, BUT the backup camera is sooo blurry and dark. The car has been to Acura service on more than one occasion... they tell me it is working to specs. Ayone else having this problem, were you able to rectify it ? ....Jim

It is my understanding that the backup camera in the new one is really good- but there is nothing they can do to help me with my problem... sorry but that is all the info I have

#19 of 21 NAVIGATION SYSTEM ADDRESS BOOK by dan233

Mar 03, 2011 (11:47 am)

IS IT POSSIBLE TO HAVE THE PERSONAL ADDRESS BOOK IN THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM RECOGNIZE BOTH DRIVERS 1 AND 2 INSTEAD OF THE SINGULAR ABILITY AS IT NOW DOES?
 
DO I HAVE TO ENTER EACH ADDRESS IN TWICE (ONCE FOR EACH DRIVER) IN ORDER FOR EACH DRIVER TO HAVE ACCESS TO COMMON ADDRESSES. THIS SEEMS VERY INEFFICIENT
