Believe it or not, only the West Coast DVD was delivered with the Car. I got the NAVTEC update. It appears the unit will only take 1 of the 2 DVD set. The new download was 20 plus minutes.

I shook my head at that one! So, you had to get the update from Navtec before the whole US was on your navigation system? {Scratching head} I know the initial loading from the DVD on mine seemed to take forever, although I have no idea how long it actually was. Did the download from Navtec fix it?

I was wondering if your dealer was able to fix this issue. My nav/audio system started shutting off and rebooting last week. It happens almost every minute when I'm driving it. I took it into the dealer this morning and there were no fault codes. They don't know what the issue is and want me to drop it off for a few days to see what's going on.

When the cars are brand new, in the dealer's instructions, they are supposed to be downloading everything before you get in the car. Until they do the download on the DVD, you won't have all the data on your system.
As far as the rebooting of the system, your dealer needs to be present when it is happening. Mine did that a few times, the dealer's mechanic only had to be present once and was able to fix it!

The dealer/mechanic saw the systems reboot several times but didn't know what to do to fix it. Do you know if your mechanic reloaded software to fix the problem? I think half the problem is that I have a US spec car in Germany so they have not seen this problem before. They don't communicate with the US dealers because of the language barrier so they asked me if I could find a potential solution online. If they can't figure it out, they want to replace the entire nav/radio system but there's got to be an easier solution.

I don't think it was as simple as a software download. If I remember correctly, the mechanic also had to make a minor adjustment in the nav system mechanicals. I won't be at the garage until I take our Range Rover in next week, but I can ask the mechanic if he remembers how he fixed it.
I know he referred to it as a common problem over here, but I didn't think to ask him at the time what the cause of the problem was. Sorry I can't be of more help to you in this. But when I ask, I'll post the answer here. I'm sure you aren't the only one with the problem.

When I took delivery of my LR2 the Nav system was constantly rebooting ... took the techs a while but it turned out to be the Sat Radio module. They replaced it by taking it from another LR2 as the part was not in stock.

Just out of curiosity, did your radio turn off the same time as the Nav system? I'll let my mechanic know about the Sat Radio module--thanks! I love my LR2 and the less time I have to spend without it, the better!
