Nav Update - Do Yourself?
Unfortunately, the nav update maps seem to lag a few years. I'm in a new neighborhood and it took a few years to get my street on the map - and as they build out new sections - those streets don't seem to show up - for a few years.
As for the XM problems - they had similar problems in Houston when I first got my LS (I have one of the early 460s). The real-time traffic had many gaps - making it almost unusable. I tried calling XM and NavTeq (who provides the mapping) and didn't make any progress. Then I called Lexus - asked for their contact at XM Navtraffic. I had to e-mail them photos of the screen from my LS - to show them the problem - and within a few weeks - they had it fixed.
