Currently rolling around in a loaner 09 TL.

What I love.

The LCD screen is soooo vivid. Very clear and crisp.

Love the way you can arm/disarm the alarm system, open the doors, turn car on/off w/o taking the keys out of your pocket.

Love how the reverse camera comes on when you put it in reverse, right after the start. (In the RDX, it takes about 10 seconds, sometimes to display anything, as it boots.)

Anyways, I love my RDX, wish it had these options.

 

In my RDX the backup camera is available immediately. The nav system itself sometimes takes ~5 seconds to get to where I can click past the safety screen (never 10), but I can start the car and shift immediately into reverse and the backup camera is on...

 

Ya? I will have to get mine looked at then. It's not nearly as fast as the 09 TL, not even close. Glad I asked, must be something whacky w/ mine.

 

I think that the 2010 will have the TL nav system; the current RDX nav system is starting to show it's age.

 

Still the white disk nav in the 09 TL right? My RDX is always quick to swap to reverse as well so I have no complaints. Nav load up is what it is... By the time I am ready to actually use the nav, it's usually up and running (after clicking the nag screen of course). Until Acura goes to a HDD nav, you're always going to have a delay in bootup as the disk spins up. IMO, load time is not bad... now my laptop on the other hand....

 

I just had a TSB performed in my '07 RDX, the screen is more vivid & crsip and fast as well, when going into "R" and forth to "D".

 

Sorry, but what is a TSB?

 

Technical Service Bulletin - its what Acura issues to service depts when you may be having a problem, if its a known problem, its usually in a TSB, which then provides a procedure to fix whatever is going wrong with your car

 

Thanks Mike.
