Re: What month do Honda / Acura navigation DVD's get updated?
The navi dvd get updated (such as it is) between Oct and Dec of any year.
The data base updates are dubious at best. I would wager 90% that what ever you would like to see in the update, will not be there. It's best to wait several years from the original revision before paying $200 for the updated dvd. I have heard recently that there is a "Buy" and "Try" grace period on the updates, call the Toll Free number found in your owner's manual and ask. mvl_groups_user@yahoo.com wrote: > I have a 2005 Honda Navigation DVD (orange v3.4, I think) in the > factory system in my 2005 Accord. > > I am looking for updated road maps, and tested in a dealership that the > 2006 DVD has some major highway revisions in my area (Boston), but not > all of them. > > I am debating on whether to wait for 2007 or not, in hopes of getting > most of the major highway revisions (construction was mostly completed > by early 2006).

I bought one update for our '03 Accord in '05 and was disappointed by how out of date the information still was. I would never bother with annual updating. Maybe once every second or third year.

Re: What month do Honda / Acura navigation DVD's get updated?
The whole DVD thing is a rip-off. $200+ makes $3 a gallon look very
reasonable. I just bought a newly-released Garmin c530 nav unit for $493 shipped. It has version 8 maps (from the same vendor the automakers use) which was just released 2 months ago and seems very up to date, even though there's been a lot of construction in Dallas/Ft.Worth. The update costs $75 to download every 12-18 months if you want. Hmmm. If a download costs $75, there's no excuse for a mailed DVD to cost more than $80. Screw Honda Acura and their $200 DVD's. Screw not being able to access the GPS except sitting in your car. Screw having to use a nav screen to adjust the a/c's fan speed. The satellite radio is confusing enough, without adding nav to the "bargain." |
