Satnav SatNav Updates

LyHealy · 3rd May 2007, 11:51

Hello,

I've been struggling to get an update for my SatNav system. The manual says they update it every year in the autumn, but the dealer is saying that there isn't one. I got the car in August last year, and the disc it came with is for 2005/6, Version 3.02.

I have called Honda UK about it, and they said that there wasn't a new version last autumn, and wouldn't tell me when the next one is planned.

As far as I'm concerned, the SatNav isn't fit for purpose if they don't update it. The disc for mine would have been issued in mid-late 2005, and I keep coming across roads that have been altered (new roundabouts, roundabouts that have been removed, new one-way systems, etc).

Is there anyone out there who has a newer version than the one I've got? I would really appreciate it, as I don't trust either the dealer or their UK organisation.

I wish there was a way to report directly to the Japanese organisation, because I'd bet that they have no idea how badly the UK has screwed up on this car, and damaged Honda's good reputation.

Welcome!

The newest version is 3.05:

Dealer should be able to sort that out for you. If you get no joy with your nearest dealer, try another! Many posts on here bemoan poor dealer service & there are even some who love their dealer to bits so shop around a bit, you'll find a better one.

Brilliant, thank you *so* much! I don't understand why they couldn't just tell me that.
