Hi,what do you mean by after setting its keeps getting lost?As long as the disc works then its the correct disc for the car otherwise it wouldn't work.However bear in mind that the disc(2002 version)is now 9 years out of date and there have been a lot of changes to roads and their layout since then,so you really do need a more recent/updated disc,hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply, regarding the SATNAV going of course, it will start out fine then anything from 2 miles it will go completely off course saying that I am in a completely different town that could be 30 miles away, would just updating the disc solve this problem?

Hi,it might solve the wondering off course although I am not entirely sure,reason being that when you input an address into the system it usually shows several up options with the same street name but in different locations/towns - question is are you chosing the right one?I had a 2002 disc in mine which I updated last year to a 2009/10 version,however did not experience your problem.

The SAT NAV system may need to be recalibrated. The manual should tell you how to do this. If you can't find it let me know and I can look it up and post on here.

HELP!

Hi I have a lexus rx300 x reg which has sat nav that is very out of date I would like to update it but after reading several blogs realise that I have the generation 1 i think. I have the origional sat nav disc holder and the numbers on the back of the box are 086664-00920. Is this the nav version number? there are other numbers underneath that read 86271-70v220 AND 99001-00841?? I understand I might not be able to get the latest software but would like to update to the newest version if possible. can anyone tell me what disc I need to buy please ?? Its the UK and European one I want . Many thanks in anticipation

Hi, sounds like your having the same problem I was having with my Mondeo, it's not a problem with your disk but with the GPS receiver. It may just need cleaning or possibly replacing. As I have only just bought my RX300 I have not managed to find the location yet but it may be worth you looking into a bit further.
