I was pissed about the lack of an override (Lexus has had it since 2000) so I started LexusOverride.com . Our efforts are to get the Override restored, or get a mass trade-in to another manufacturer. You can register and get updates on the Override situation for 2007 owners there.

You better go to your Lexus dealership and have them check the touch-screen diagnostics for the navigation system to verify what component is malfunctioning. What you are experiencing is abnormal.

The DVD map disc updates will only improve the mapping and businesses information. No improvements to the operation system will be realized.

DVD with maps?

Hi :
I just purchased 2008 RX 350 and wondering if the owners get to receive a navigation DVD disc with maps, just in case if the system fails and a re-load is necessary? or the dealer holds the DVD and we will have to take the car to him in such case?
Any suggestions are appreciated.

I had the same question at the time of my SUV purchase (I also own 2008 RX350). I was told that you should go to a Lexus dealer every 2-3 years for the Navigation System software updates/upgrades. They said it doesn't make sense to do it more often. In the navigation system menu look for the software version - and call the dealer to see if they have a newer version.
Any navigation system malfunctions will be taken care of by a Lexus dealer as well.

MLRusso - I noticed on another posting you were looking for good prices in the Atlanta/Georgia area. Did you purchase your RX in the Atlanta market? If so, would you mind sharing the details of your deal and which dealership you used? I'm in the process of getting initial quotes on a special order AWD - (we want the factory dvd, but not the ML stereo system so it has to be special ordered.) I'd appreciate any feedback on dealerships you may have.

I see you've found the Prices Paid discussions. Also check out Dealer Ratings and Reviews - it's only been around a short while but maybe there's some Atlanta reviews up by now. And please make mental notes and review your dealer experience when you buy.
Thanks and have fun shopping!

You can buy the unlock code to unlock the navigation while the car is moving. check out ebay! There is a brief series of steps to go through and unlock it and it is no longer disabled and u can use anytime!!!

Is there a list of numbers from the maker, etc. that tell me what navigation generation my unit is. I am buying one off ebay to put into my vehicle and need to be sure it is a generation 4 to match the computer brain and vehicle? the seller cannot confirm and offered the part numbers, etc. to check. Does anyone know a site or do I have to ask a dealer?
