How are you doing? This is Uk who wants to purchase a '03 Acura TL Type-S with Navigation. Can you help me?

I wonder navigation on '03 TL Type-S does tell me what to do like 'making left turn at 0.3mile ahead' with its voice. Does this model have function of helping me while driving with its own voice? I think driving with voice aid and driving without seeing map is the reason to buy a navigation equiped model.

I just visited a dealershop to buy a used '03 TL Type-S with Navigation/Onstar. But a salesperson told me that Navigation system of this model doesn't tell me how to get to a place with its own voice. It is so weird. If it can't let me know the direction with its voice, I can't understand that why it is called navigation system. She told me that I can just refer to the point where I stands on the map posted on its LCD panel and I have to refer to the direction with my eyes. I think the purpose of navigation system is helping a driver focus on only driving without seeing map or LCD screen. I think there was some misunderstanding between her and me. Can you let me know if it is true? Thank you.

Yes the NAV system gives voice directions. I have an '03 type-s with nav. You enter the destination address into the system and it will give you turn by turn voice and map visual direction.

The one thing I wish it did was tell you what the street name was instead of just turn left in a half mile.

Hope this helps.

 

Thank you for your kindness. I appreciate much. Have a nice day~!
