V36 Nav And Language Swap - Faq

[Wildcard342]

Hi, I am considering the v37 2009 model and understand from reading here that you can't get the navi working or maps for it here. I was looking at the Aus infiniti coupe and it looks to be visually the same navi unit. Has anyone checked the part number and cost of this unit so that it could just be retrofitted to the import and has anyone tried inserting the Aus spec dvd into the import to see if it will read it? Just curious if this is an option and have not seen it discussed.

No offence but it has been discussed already in this thread as well as the Software thread.

I had someone in Sydney ring me in this today. It's NOT a direct swap.

You need to change:

Buttons

Controller for butttons,

screen

Navi control unit

Main radio button panel

and roughly $10k in cash.

Max,

tis fine . most people CBF'd reading and prefer to be spoon fed :-)l

You're telling me! I think I'm happy with the Japanese flavour, especially after all the effort I went to with my part of the electronics.

Hi there I'm new to this thread. Just pulled into the petrol station just wondered if anyone can tell me what side the fuel cap is on?? Cheers

[The Max]

Nice try there.

I wonder if everyone really knows that there's a little arrow on the fuel gauge which actually points to which side the filler neck is on?

[V36infinity]

Shhhhhh max your giving away all the common sense and logic . Lol

there is the system I use in operation.

Hey Chris any news on the testing you were waiting for ?

[Chris Rogers]

none yet.

All I want is to disable the VSS wires on the foot ("hand") brake from disabling the AUX screen. My 2007 V36 Sedan has the AUX video and Audio inputs in the centre console, so using video out on a phone should be enough for us Navi owners ?

I have seen tutorials of the US car having the handbrake video disabled, but the wires are apparently diferent colours ?

Im thinking of getting a v36 non navi for my next car. I am just wanting to know if the stereo is able to connect to an iPod properly and listen to fm radio via an expander and have it being usable? Thanks for any advice

[The Max]

The FM expander works regardless.

What do you mean when you say "work properly" in reference to your iPod? Are you talking about just line level/aux audio input or having full control of your iPod from the OEM stereo controls?

[timmymacg]

should have been clear. I meant full control via usb. Also, when the 2010 models start arriving with digital radio, will that work as a normal digital radio would here?

[Chris Rogers]

I can get control of it via the OEM radio. There is a image of me doing so in the set of images of the red car I did.

[Chris Rogers]

Radio will not work. Different system.

Where in NSW can I get the v36 garmin non navi upgrade done and what would be the the costs associated with the upgrade.

[Chris Rogers]

Cronulla car sound. 9545 5577. Speak to Owen, mention me.

[ffrezza]

Thanks Chris. Your quick response is much appreciated.

[Chris Rogers]

A quick note to those finding this in google.

Calling me , getting me to look at the car and then requesting all the part numbers to do the nav swap on a 2011 v36 because you think you can get the parts your self is outright rude. I am not a charity and I will not think twice about calling you out on it.
