We have a few of these navigation threads going but I don't want to hijack one of the other threads, so I'll start a new one
Can someone tell me how to find the current map revision I have running and what is the most recent revision available? During negotiation for my wife's 2010 350 the dealer threw in a map update.

Thanks, Vince.

When I bought my 2013 RX 'CPO' (dealer owned) the NAV was of the 2011 vintage. Lexus corporate was very obliging in 'giving' me an update. I decided on waiting for the 2013 version. In the meantime I worked with what I had and became somewhat adept on using it. My main complaint since I live in a 'rural' area some of the streets and such were 'incomplete' (as the NAV voice would say). But after a while everything was falling in place and I was doing quite well; including extended trips to Illinois and to Florida (from Georgia). The 13.1 came out. I went to the dealer and had it installed (labor/everything was included free). What a disappointment!!! I am worse off now than what I had!!! It's like it does not know where I am at? In my 'rural' area it is not now giving me 'corrected' routing when I decide not to use what it decides is the best route; it just lets me wander and gives no correction/help on getting to where I need to go. I eventually get to a street it had chosen and then will assist me.....again. I am wondering what happened?

Maybe it has to 'Re-Learn' who I am and how I drive?? Soooooooo, beware of updating/upgrading. Maybe I'll be again happy in a few weeks (months?) when this updated system relearns? I hope that is the only problem. If this newer software has thousands of new streets.......it must have dropped some?????

I Hate to hear that i don't want something worse than i have now. I can understand loosing the cookies and your home setting but your case sounds extreme.
Has anyone else had issuse with 13.1?

I may have 'over grieved' on my predicament. I have used my 13.1 update for a trip from my 'rural' area to the Big City......Southwest Atlanta. It did fine. The update did NOT obliterate my previous settings and it used what I 'had' just fine. Turn by Turn, advance upcoming turns, etc............ My concern is that supposedly there are additional streets and what-have-you in this updated software.....including additions for my rural area. But, since I know better what the roads are in 'my' area I often chose to deviate from the NAV programmings recommendations. In the previous version when I did this it would 'see' I had deviated and would then jump to where I was and navigate from my change. I am noticing that I am left to wander without any assistance now? But maybe it did do that when I first bought the vehicle??? So, maybe it 'learned' what I had done. Sooooo, maybe it has to 're-learn' ME?

I hope that is the simple answer/solution???


P.S. -> clarification: the 'wandering' is only happening in my 'rural' areas on 'Incomplete Data'(as the NAV voice calls them) streets. A Garmin does not do that nor did my last version of the LEXUS NAV (after it learned me?)
