been quite busy working on these cars actually. Ozpost - yep! thats giving me a lot of grief on the wholesale front.

I'm taking a break from 24th-jan 3 so no posting from me.

Ill send you details after Chrissy, im sure your very busy and also the Auspost dramas at this time of year.

well i just got a parcel in the mail - weirdly it's behind a shrub in my front yard and the plastic casing of the dvd was cracked in the corners,

either it's thrown to the house in anger or step on or being squeezed too full with other stuffs.

so post is working already... although half of them were probably pissed if they don't get the payrise they wanted...

expect a lot of damaged mail...

hope andy's mate from russia can find solution for this...

my maps look COMPLETELY different!

i think i have the birdview version of maps. what is that one???

Most maps change between birds eye and "3D". There might be a function that can switch between them on yours.

"Guess"

It will take a lot of efforts (and cost) to decode those proprietary map format. Let alone finding another map that can be encoded into something that the ROM drive can read.

It is such a pity that Xanavi built the maps in closed proprietary format, as it looks like their navigation system is one of the leading in its class

(with 3D buildings, 3D view of multi-layer overpass etc).

    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
