There must be some way. If you watch the independent YouTube video reviews from the launch event, the display clearly showed the Four Seasons hotel as a navigation shortcut - not just an address.

Ah. Well she should be!

If you can’t change it, that is a serious flaw.

This is the second very serious flaw that has come up with the Nav. You can’t set the zoom level of the map, and now this.

I also can’t find good info on map updates and traffic information. Will there be an extra cost? Do you need a separate subscription for traffic info? How good is it?

If Acura Nav turns out to be not as good as the mapping you get for free from Car Play it will be a huge disappointment, and also a strike against the HUD, since it seems that Car Play Nav does not appear in the HUD, like it does in the Accord.

On the Accord, Google Maps shows on the HUD via Android Auto, yet AA is still not available for the RDX. I sure hope Acura straightens this out.

when I asked my sales rep I was told the maps would be updated via the system updates (which can be done on your home WiFi) and that traffic info was included with acuralink so you need a subscription for that after the trial period ends.

I deive 20-25k Miles a year and have been using a cheap Garmin, so it’s an upgrade for me
either way, but I will say this. I took the car for 3 hours the other day and played around with the navigation a lot. I don’t see the need for any other zoom level. It seemed to be close enough to let me see what’s within a stones throw which for the purpose of my job is more beneficial than being zoomed way out.

The one thing I felt was a little tricky was the inputting of info while driving. Much easier to handwrite but it would sometimes misread 2 as a Z, and if you hit a bump and scribble everywhere it could be anything. Took me 3 attempts to figure out how to backspace or space ahead. Otherwise I think the nav is just fine.

I didn’t try to add favorites. Has to be a way to name it. My cheapo Garmin allows it. Maybe add the address to the contact in your phone and import it as a favorite?

there is a real chance that the nav gets updated when the system update comes out to include android auto. I’m sure there will more updates at that time than just the addition of android.

If they want to maintain sales momentum into August, they have to release it this month. I would think twice before buying a car with a promised feature that is still not present two months after release. However I believe the ball is in Googles court to make AA work with the touchpad.

Please make sure everyone calls Acura Client Relations and voice your concerns. They will never change anything if no one complains.

Well, I’m not an alcoholic, so it is cool with me.

You must be an old guy. Car-bu-raters and stuff like that.

Sigh, I loved sticking a bic pen in the butterflies and pouring Gumout down the carbs, and looking at the blue smoke coming out of the back, and saying to my friends “lookit that shit. This stuff really works. Give me another beer.” Truth be told, it was likely not a Double IPA from a boutique brewer. It was likely the cheapest, coldest, beer we could get when we all chipped in a couple of bucks.

I learned ​​​​​​ on a three on the tree. But. lemme tell ya, losing the wipers going uphill was one pain in the butt. Especially when it was pouring and I didn’t live in a hilly area. But those back seats, man, what memories. Especially when we were both young and bendable.

I have a feeling the OTA updates include you using your phone to download the update while it’s plugged into the usb
