New Guy Here- Phone/nav Questions

[bluedogz]

Good morning all-

Just managed to find myself a 1999 LS400 with 18k original miles! (Before anyone starts- Got the car from a friend's mother- have known her and the car for years.)

The car is equipped with the nav package and the integrated phone. I have never owned a car with either, so the questons are:

1) How do I make sure the nav system is up to date?

2) How can i activate this phone?

I called the dealer and they acted like they had no idea what I was talking about. Call Letstalk.com and they said they could only help me if I had a new Lexus with the Bluetooth equipment. So, I'm not having a lot of luck here!

I'd really appreciate any help anyone can give! I pick my car up on Monday! Woo hoo!

You need to purchase a new nav CD to get it up to date. Current version is 3.7, eject your disc and it will have the version written on it.

About £150 from Lexus dealers.
