Default * Does the navigation system update?

Hey guys,

Does the navigation system in the RX 2004 330s update through the satellite? There have been some changes in major roads around here.

Thanks

The navigation system uses a DVD for data storage. It's kept in a DVD player under the floor in the cargo area.

For the last couple of years, Lexus has updated the DVD in the September-October timeframe. You can buy newer DVD's as parts, but you need to shop around. List price on the DVD from your average Lexus parts counter is pretty steep! Look around on the Internet to find the best pricing.

The most recent updates was a little light on streets, and instead boosted the size of the points-of-interest (POI) database considerably.
