  • Well so far I am delighted with my £300 Chinese android unit, the 10 inch screen seems so much bigger and better, not only do I have thee 2107 iGO maps but they show speed limits, and warn you (if you enable it) when you are above the limit.
    I haven't noticed any affect on locks or interior lights and can monitor hot topics on here like DPF % and temperature on the built in torque pro app.
    I have just received a cable for techstream and noticed on the customise options that there is an entry for "navigation" I haven't looked at this yet but when I get time I will put my factory unit back in to see if there is anything that can be changed. I cant believe that there is otherwise somebody would have noticed by now.

    • Hi John looks like that might be the way for me to go. Would like to see your unit one time. Does the unit also alert for fixed speed cameras etc ?

            You are very welcome to have a look, then you can decide for yourself if you think it is worth doing. I was concerned about fitting a non standard unit while under guarantee but as it is plug and play it would not take long to revert to the factory unit.

            I don't know your location and the PM system doesn't seem to work so I cant send you my contact details but it would be good to meet you. I am south of Perth.

            • Hi John I’m south of Perth as well I received a phone call from Toyota telling me that the new map is out . I just got quoted for processor Toyota in gosnells and new town Toyota in Welshpool $550 + Tax for an update of the map. Even the parts guys were shocked !!

              • Wow that does seem expensive even for Toyota, did you ask them what version the map is? if not please could you ask them as I would love to know what they consider to be "new"
                When I was given my "new" 2015 map it was over a year old on release but I accepted it as I knew it was the best I could get and my vehicle was 2015 anyway so that really was all I could have asked for.
                Please do have a look at my head unit before you make a decision.

                • Hi John speaking to the lady it could of been 2016 Q4 but she wasn’t too sure. Too be honest at that price I’d rather look at your unit and see what options I have cause that is insane To pay that much for an updated map.

                  Comment


                  • Yes 2016 Q4 would make sense as I think mine was 2015 Q4 although I cant remember exactly. Believe it or not this is an improvement if maps are updated annually now but I still think it is a rip off. I looked at Hardly Normal's website and a Tomtom with lifetime world maps and traffic is $239 and a new model Garmin with the same is $424.
                    When I asked the Toyota guest experience centre how they could justify $300 for a one year old map they claimed it took that long to integrate it into a vehicle.
                    $300 was bad enough but $550 plus GST is taking the p**s.

                    • Hi John and other's reading this thread, I have gone and ordered this unit:
                      https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Car-...311.0.0.1aakdi I did ask for a second CANBUS decoder but got a reply that "Dear friend, the package is included the Canbus. Thanks", so I will wait and see but I reckon they have not added a second decoder. I will let you guys know how the install goes once it has arrived. I have also ordered the ODBII scanner and the DAB+ antenna.

                      • Will be interested to hear how it goes, it looks similar to my unit but better in respect of having a card slot for external memory which mine doesn't have.
                        Looks a reasonable price as well, Aliexpress quotes in pounds as that was the currency I used and it is £288 including delivery so a bit cheaper than mine as well.

                          Forgot to answer that question yesterday. Yes it has all the frills that iGO use if you want to put them in. I find the 3D buildings a bit much but the junction view useful.
                          The speed cameras appear on the screen with the speed limit they are checking for and count down as you approach them.

                          • Thanks John. Will have to arrange a time one day to see this unit.

                            Thank you

                            • I have just picked up my mew Prado 2018 model this week. I asked about the date of the maps but Toyota just said they would be the latest?
                              On the Unit I have found reference to 2016 Q4 for the maps, no version number? Where do I find that? I'm still digestion the instruction booklet?

                              • That’s exactly right and it costs me $578.41 to upgrade to that version and I picked up my prado September 28 2017 with a build date 2017. There upgrade map prices are insane hence why I’m in the process of trying to upgrade my unit.
