navi question
I have my display set to "Auto"
The manual says, that when in Auto, if the headlights are off, the Navi is in "Day" mode, and when the headlights are on the Navi is in "Night" mode.
However in my TL, headlights on OR off, the navi displays in Day mode, I have made sure the setting is set to auto, but it doesn't change.. what gives?

did you press the MAX button on the dash where you adjust the brightness for the gauages? when you press this it goes to day mode reguardless of the headlight setting. press the minus once on for the dash dimmer and it will go back to normal.

If I set into AUTO mode, no matter the headlight on/off, my display setting is always sticky with AUTO option.
Did you say your Navi is in "Day" mode? Maybe your Navi is not in "AUTO" mode properly... ??

I have mine set to AUTO. With headlights ON the map background is in NIGHT mode (black); with the headlights OFF the map is in DAY mode (tan). When driving at daytime with headlights on (rain) I press the MAX button to display the map in DAY mode.

I would certainly have the dealer look into it. In the meantime you might want to try changing the brightness level to every detente possible. I know that's probably reaching a bit but you might find a setting where it in fact would work correctly. Either way it's not functioning properly and should be brought to the dealer's attention.

Based on your early post, I thought you have adjusted this... I thought your brightness setting had been btwn Max and middle.
