Your other option is to buy a used prior-version Navi DVD from another owner who upgrades to a newer version-- just check the Black Market on AZ, before Craig's List, etc. |
My 04 TL has the original navigation disk. It doesn't show quite a few roads (highly traveled roads) that have been around for 10-20 or more years. :annoyed:
Anybody have any ideas on this???? This is exact reason why I want a new disk. Otherwise I know a new disk is virtually pointless except for a few new roads and POIs. |
I bought the version prior to that on sale for $99. 3.B0. They put the current version on sale just before the release of the next disk..Check the black market section and see if anyone has a newer version than what you have for sale.
|
ebay has some but they want 140 for a previous year
|
Anyone want to sell me their old one?
|
It's been a couple of months since the OP started this thread. The site the link takes you to is now showing the most updated disk at $149 with free shipping.

Hit the road with the latest navigation information at your fingertips. With the new Acura 2013 DVD Map Update, your direction will be guided by a system that promises optimal performance and identifies new highways, subdivisions, businesses, and points of interest. With map coverage that includes the 48 contiguous United States and Canada, your Acura will be equipped for travel both near and far. 10 bucks sez it'll still take you around in circles and blocks or miles out of the way to get where you're going no matter whether you set it to Direct Route, Easy Route, Minimize, Maximize, etc. If they actually fixed the routing issues, then it's worth the upgrade. And to give an example, those of you in the NYC/NJ area will understand what I mean coming down the Palisades Pkwy with a destination set somewhere in Northern or Central Jerzey. This fuckin thing tells me to get on 95 North which means crossing the GW Bridge ($13 toll), get on 9A (Henry Hudson Pkwy) come back around and BACK across the bridge to continue on the appropriate NJ highway. And that's just one example of MANY. . . |

No-they are not burnable. AcuraZine does not condone nor promote the piracy of these discs. |
yeah i wouldnt waste 10 bucks on a new disc.... this cars navi is a joke. I mean it looks like something from SNES. I was set on getting a NAVI and now I dunno why. I mean the HFL and rear view camera is cool, but I trust Apple or Google Maps wayyyy before I trust Acura navi to try to get my to turn onto a one way road. again.

2013 Navi Update
Last year I bought it for $99 in April from Navteq. Perhaps the same thing will happen this year?

I am still running on the disc from 2005. But I don't really miss much I think. But I don't like the fact that there is a delay when you start up and you press audio, and you have to wait for who knows what. |
2013 Orange DVD Map Update v3.C0
There are a number of new roads in this area that were not appearing. It is still not nearly as good at being up to date as my Garmin or TomToms which update every 4 months. So, to be honest, I do not know of any great changes. I end up running the Tomtom in my armrest to tell me where the speedtraps are anyway.
There are a number of places (here, and I think wikipedia) where they tell you how to get rid of the LONG delay for startup (by burning a modified disk). I am thinking of doing that as I await the $50 price reduction. BTW, once I figured out that you can adjust volume and tune the radio with the knobs while you are waiting, it took some of the aggravation away of waiting for start up. And there is nothing like the nice big screen and radio quieting while voice is on. |
Well, since it is built into the car, you dont have to stick it on your glass or prop it up somehow. But that is true with any oem system and not much to brag about in 2013.. But in 2004/5 the TL navi was a model for other cars. And I still think it is pretty good. But would I would like to see is a better menu to search for a particular restuarant. And I would like to do so in MY Area not in New York City.. So I always have to try to remember how to do that as there is a unique way of getting into the menu to search your own area.. And it shouldn't be that way. It shuold default to my area.. Also one of the menu's I saw the other day while looking for "taco bell", one choice on one menu was "eating places" or "restaurant". I was like what the heck... So I cancelled it. That is useless. It needs to be more intuitive. And the start up speed is slower than the 07 TL's.. So, That is all I am mainly interested in. The number of roads has little impact on me. All the roads I drive on have been here a decade.
|
As far as searching for places like Taco Bell, it still is lousy, no improvement there. Surprising how bad it is at that.

That's the kind of thing Google Search does CORRECTLY, so it's good to have a smartphone as backup. For example, trying to find a particular Marriott in the car's system based on location wouldn't come up, but Google FOUND IT as a Courtyard by Marriott. . . |
"You can burn them all you want but the disc has software verification that will not allow it to work without modifications."
That is a shame, I have been living with the crazy long start-up all this time thinking that the only thing holding me back from correcting it is my own laziness (and its lack of importance in the big scheme of things) |

Many times I've wanted to b*tch slap the man responsible for the navigation algorithm used in the device. |

If anyone has an older cd thats newer than an 07 they want to discard. I will gladly pay shipping :fingerscrossed:
|
^^^ Jeff, put a WTB (Willing To Buy) in the Black Market.
|
Not sure I follow but if this even smells of software piracy, the Mods will release their wrath. That sort of thing isn't tolerated here.
|
Again, we will not promote the piracy of Navigation Discs on AcuraZine.
And Desmond, if you want to go fast, that's totally your call. |

Makes me think twice about getting built in Navi in future vehicles. I'd like to rip my unit out and replace the lcd with a tablet like some people on here are doing. |
