Aircon Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Was at Lexus today having some work done to my brakes and I asked about the availability of Maps V16.Still not available but they have dropped the price of V15 from $399 to $325. Dont mind paying for a service, but $325 for an upgrade is highway robbery. thanks for the update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bartek Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 If someone has V16 original DVD, can't you just make a copy?I have V16 :D when was it released? It hasn't been released. Trick is - all new Lexus cars come with it but the separate $396 AUD version of it will be released within next few weeks so yes - if you own a new Lexus you will have the V16 in it.

Nothing to panic about. Give or take few weeks and it will be available for separate sale. Its not like it will take 6-12 months etc. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D1 Pete Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 spoke to a lexus tech a few weeks ago, he said the latest version doesnt even have the clem 7 tunnel or new gateway bridge mapped in as yet and would be best to wait till the end of this year for the next version to come out. Thats for those guys who are from brisbane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

col Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 ive successfully got it, just need t try it now... will install it tomorrow, at least this ISO file works this time... thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
col Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Yes, so it all works fine... (thank you very much for your help) At first I used a dvd-r and the screen just said invalid disc... So i burnt it again to a DVD+R and see worked in no time at all (about 30 seconds)... Also updated the LC200 Sahara while I was at it... I am a bit disapointed my street is still not on V16, its been here for over a year now... Oh well guess ill have to wait for V17 before I can use the "home" button :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilv1004s Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 hm.. i cant seem to get that stupid cover off any tips? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlantis Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 My tip is, don't snap the tool like I did :( Once you shove them both in, just work it out gently by rocking side to side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did the same, and the snapped end put a large scratch on the panel.. I've ordered some plastic polish to try and buff it out :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlantis Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Damn, that sucks... I guess the tools aren't as strong as they could be. Fortunately it looks like a decent toothpick or thin screwdriver would still do the trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately it looks like a decent toothpick or thin screwdriver would still do the trick. Yeah, but it's only on the clock panel, not the rest of the fascia, thankfully! Worst case scenario, I buy a new clock panel... I'm a little fussy like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
