my parts dept just told me that there are no dvd updates anymore, its all done by satilite, but the nav owners manual clearly states that update discs are availible to order?? so my parts dept doesnt know jack, about the nav system, or the book is wrong...

so who knows for sure, no disc, or disc for updates, and forsure you dont get a disc with the car??

john94si

I did the same thing.

You don't get a disk with a car - if you want to update I believe the update needs to happen via USB - takes about 2 hours to do the full upgrade to the Nav. Search in here for other threads about the update.

Okay go here:

http://www.navigation.com/is-bin/INT.../Default-Start

that's acura's web site page w/ info about the nav updates

yes the 4G TL navi is hard drive based - no spinning DVD in the trunk or under the seat like older acuras

Yes the navi is updatable - but not via usb or satellite

vinnier6 on the acura nav web site where you saw the info about the red disc - thats the update disc you can buy - you insert the disc in your cd/dvd player - and it updates the hard drive nav from there.
