Hi, I am considering the v37 2009 model and understand from reading here that you can't get the navi working or maps for it here. I was looking at the Aus infiniti coupe and it looks to be visually the same navi unit. Has anyone checked the part number and cost of this unit so that it could just be retrofitted to the import and has anyone tried inserting the Aus spec dvd into the import to see if it will read it? Just curious if this is an option and have not seen it discussed.

I had someone in Sydney ring me in this today. It's NOT a direct swap.

You need to change:

Buttons

Controller for butttons,

screen

Navi control unit

Main radio button panel

and roughly $10k in cash.

Max,

tis fine . most people CBF'd reading and prefer to be spoon fed :-)l

All I want is to disable the VSS wires on the foot ("hand") brake from disabling the AUX screen. My 2007 V36 Sedan has the AUX video and Audio inputs in the centre console, so using video out on a phone should be enough for us Navi owners ?

I have seen tutorials of the US car having the handbrake video disabled, but the wires are apparently diferent colours ?

Im thinking of getting a v36 non navi for my next car. I am just wanting to know if the stereo is able to connect to an iPod properly and listen to fm radio via an expander and have it being usable? Thanks for any advice

The FM expander works regardless.

What do you mean when you say "work properly" in reference to your iPod? Are you talking about just line level/aux audio input or having full control of your iPod from the OEM stereo controls?

A quick note to those finding this in google.

Calling me , getting me to look at the car and then requesting all the part numbers to do the nav swap on a 2011 v36 because you think you can get the parts your self is outright rude. I am not a charity and I will not think twice about calling you out on it.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
