Sat Nav Dvd Version

[agalbraith]

Hi All,

I'm getting a little confused.....

- My car, delivered new at the end of December, is reporting DVD version "2001 ver. 1"

- I just rang the Lexus contact centre and was told that the latest DVD for the IS300 (apparently the same as the one in the SC430) is dated August last year. They follow every 18 months, so the next one is a while off, but my one is definately too old.

- Lexus Reading told me that the latest version is "a couple of weeks old" and are going to call me back to confirm. Entertainingly their reasoning for the DVD in my car being so old was "it may have been sat around for some time before it was delivered".

- I haven't pulled the boot apart yet, but can I fit the DVD easily myself (like you can with the CD-ROM system) or would I need to schedule a trip to the dealers?

I can see that I may need to throw my toys and get this changed free here, but I want to get the story straight before I do so.

Can someone answer this question with any authority?

Well, Mark from Lexus Reading just called me.

"Customer relations do know about this one, and they're going to get back to me. You should be a getting a new DVD disc, the latest one, sometime soon".

Can't argue I suppose.
