TIA
Picked up my new TCH in Toronto on Friday (November 17), it came complete or almost complete with navigation. The Navigation option in Canada is dealer installed, two parts, a connector and a cable that connects to the microphone are backordered and are not scheduled to arrive until next February!! The result is at the moment I do not have navigation or Bluetooth voice recognition.

Anyway I have checked the navigation disk, these are the part numbers:-

86271-53021

464210-0791

Data version 06.1

The Technical Service Bulletin EL012 - 06 shows part number 5-464210-092 so I'm not sure whether I have a later version or I need to upgrade.

Regarding the performance of the navigation system I'm so far quite disappointed, it is not nearly as good as my GPS PDA with TomTom software installed! Yesterday for example it advised me to ""exit highway left" when the exit to the highway was on the right! This misdirection has happened several times in the two days I have been using it. For $2,700 (the Canadian price for navigation) you would think it would be better not worse than my $400 PDA!

Sooty, it would be nice if you include in your location in your profile.
