The hard drive in your trunk-mounted navigation box may be failing. A replacement through your dealer would be incredibly expensive.

But you can build an inexpensive replacement with a PCMCIA adapter (~$7 shipped) and a 512 MB Compact Flash card (~$10).

Search the forum for "PCMCIA" for a ton of information on how to do this.

Search the forum for the term "PCMCIA".

You will find answers to all of your questions and to some you didn't realize that you had.

Good luck!
