Hi,
I recently took my 06 IS350 in to get the Nav TSIB done (thought I was in the Atlantic, hah) and when I check the DVD version it says 5.1 still...
They supposedly ordered a new disc (at least they made me wait 3 days) for the fix, but I have a feeling they just recalibrated it by hand and sent me on my way. After my 30 mile drive to work it hasn't hosed up yet... but I'm not holding my breath.

Anyone else NOT get the 6.1 DVD for the TSIB fix?

Thanks,
Henry

 

You should be getting the '07 disc.

Recalibration does NOT work. You can recalibrate that yourself (I was doing it every two miles before the disc was changed).

 

same 4 me..........

 

'07 disc = 6.1?

 

one time i was scrolling around the screen with my finger and let go and it kept scrolling! like all the way into the ocean! like i had to hit all the other buttons to get it to stop. is this OK for TSIB for new disc?

 

I'm not sure why it would keep scrolling, but that's not the problem fixed by the TSIB. The TSIB addresses an issue with locking onto the GPS satellites, which causes it to use the speed sensors and gyro to perform dead reckoning to calculate a change in position, rather than get an absolute fix from the birds. Watch for the "GPS" indicator under the map scale on the display. It should turn on soon after starting the car, and should only go out when the car is in a place where the view of the sky is blocked, such as a tunnel or parking structure.

 

who has this tsib?

 

Here 'ya go ...

 

So I got the wrong one?

 

i had something done or fix about a years or so, but never with the TSIB, i when to the dealer and told them that my car on the map is goin into the ocean and not on the highway, they check the car and tell me that there a problem with the Receiver inside the navig, and it took them a week, got it fix and np since then. so sure i get the TSIB?

 

Most likely. They probably had to order the disc, which is why it took them a week. If it the problem is fixed it was almost surely due to a disc change.

 

so wht is the big diff with the 5.1 to the 6.1? i know ididntt get it is still the same

 

Anybody have the original thread link for this TSIB? I need some more info on the change after this repair is done. Thanks.

 

You'll have to do a search, I don't know the original thread. The change after the repair is simple, your location will be correct rather than putting the location off in a field or ocean.

 

doesn't the TSIB replace the 5.1 disc with another 5.1 disc that has the updated firmware? I don't think you are guaranteed the newest nav disc with the lastest maps too (ie, ver 7.1)
