The new Prado uses iGO software and "HERE" maps.
I say this because the older V20 V21 etc maps were made by "Whereis" company. I do not wish to bore you all to death but I think there is more to this saga than at first seems likely. He says he has heard there is a part number PZQ 6000750 coming but doesn't know when. The dealer thinks part number PZQ 6000250 is current, possibly this is version 21. I will not be holding my breath as nobody knows when or what will be available.
I have been constantly passed backwards and forwards between Toyota Australia and the dealer, neither know the answer to the simple question "when will an update be available"Īt present consumer protection in WA who agree that "selling a new vehicle with out of date navigation is unacceptable" have told me that they have heard back from Toyota after two months of asking to say that "I will get a new version when it becomes available" I wonder if everyone could check to see what your maps are please? It is dead easy: from the map screen press, menu, more, help, about, more, content, maps. Note: Do NOT turn off the engine/hybrid system before the next Toyota logo screen displays.Ĩ.When the Toyota logo screen is displayed, the update is finished.ĩ.Remove the USB Flash Drive from the vehicle USB port.I have been battling with Toyota Australia, or guest experience centre or whatever they call themselves since the beginning of December when I bought my new Prado only to discover the estate where I live built three years ago does not exist according to the navigation system.Īs a post above says the maps are made by "HERE" and date from 2013 Q4
