Default Updating Navi Software

Hello all, has anyone with 2nd Gen updated their navigation software to show current streets? Mine is an 05 and many streets are not present. Twelve years is a long time and alot of changes have occurred.
thanks

OP meant 2nd generation RX. 2005 was Gen 4 or 5.

Also looks like Lexus forgot to pay their domain name bill. That's kinda embarrassing.

First, you are in the wrong section. Yours is a second gen and you are in third gen forum. But, to answer your question. I am sure there is an update. I know someone that has a 2010 and they just updated to the 2016 maps. They had to go to the dealer to have it done and the dealer charged $239. Very special maps I would say. If you are referring to the system as a whole rather than just the maps, it is my understanding that is not possible.

ilomaster is correct, the map information update does not update the screen appearance/resolution/processor speed
or anything but the map streets and points of interest. (Playing the latest music release does not upgrade your speakers...)
