Navigation (GPS) Woes

I have a 2001 CL Type S. The Navigation unit still uses the original DVD from 2001. I bought the car certified from Honda. The Navigation was always slow (as compared to 2002 TL my friend owns) and I complained to Honda many times, but I could never replicate the issue at the dealership. Now my warranty has run out and of course now the Navi has become insanely slow. By slow I mean, when you touch something on screen, it takes a while for it to register & move on. Though it is sporadic, but it still happens a lot. I type in address (which can a be slow process due to slow response) and it takes minutes (can beup to 10-15 mins) before it comes back with a result. And many times it will give a error saying that it cannot find the route.

Off lately, the GPS positioning on the Map is also quite off. If I just use the map feature, it shows the car way off the road I am driving on.

Anybody has had a similar problem. Can I reset the GPS somehow?

Thanks in advance for you help.

Try updating the system with a newer Navi DVD. There have been several updates since 2001, including software updates to speed up the navi's performance.
