Help Me Find A 2011/2012 Sat Nav Disc For My T180

[JHL]

The disc I recieved had both Toyota and Lexus logo's, from what I understand they are compatible to both types of vehicle as they use the same sat nav.

Does the original disc work OK when it is re-loaded?

[Mr.P]

Yes - it appears to be the same disc as you received - white with both logos and "E14".

The original works with no problem when it is reinserted - it's dated 2007 - 2008

[JHL]

Sounds like the same disc, best leave it for Satnavi to resolve, if they can't then I am sure they will refund you.

What actually happens when you load the E14 disc? mine took a couple of minutes to upload then evrything worked OK.

[Mr.P]

It just says Error reading disc. Check that you have correct disc.

I've left it in for quite a while in the hope that it would boot up but no use. I've mailed Satnavi this morning and if they can't offer a fix I've asked for my money back.

[JHL]

Sorry I can't be of more help, seems strange that the satnavi discs have worked OK for some of us, but unfortunately not for you. If you lived a bit closer we could have tried swapping the discs.

Please keep us informed.

Cheers

JHL

I've scanned the original disc and sent a copy - the odds on two dud discs being sent are very high I would think.

I'll keep everyone informed.

Hi Tbird - can you elaborate? Do you just insert the Garmin disc?

Greetings Mr. P, JHL is correct, I use the my Garmin Satnav unit instead of the RAV's built in unit. Much more up to date than even the latest Disc's for the RAV.

[Mr.P]

Well the suppliers have suggested that the problem could be a dirty lens in the sat nav. I bought a cleaning disc from Tesco but the system doesn't recognise it - it just sits there not spinning. Anyone else tried to clean the lens?

[Mechman]

I bought a disc from here. Had it a few months and so far has worked fine.

I was drifting back a year or so nearer the start of this thread (snow clouds so no Sky!) and saw a couple of enquiries as to full postcode upgrade but one reply thought it a hardware limitation. As I read on the Sportage club site the other day that Kia have released a full postcode upgrade for their satnavs I wonder whether T have done this. I find the Rav satnav an absolute pain to use and a full postcode entry would help big time.

Anyone have any knowledge of this? Thanks

[Mr.P]

Just a final update. Managed to clean the lens with a disc - the Satnavi discs still wouldn't run and the company have refunded me.

It seems the only option left is to Shell out to Toyota for their update disc - ouch! At least ***** Turpin wore a mask!

Still is thanks to the censor widget...............

I should have said Richard Turpin!

Why don't you keep your eye out for a genuine UK disc from foreign sellers like I did?

Mine was some thing like £75 for a genuine Mr T disc from a guy in Germany from memory rather than pay the full £150 ish for 4 discs when you may not ever use 3 of them.

[Mr.P]

I think that Toyota are selling the single disc for over £100. Which foreign sellers are you referring to?

[blue monster]

Have a look on eBay & further back in this thread to see where I managed to get mine from.

Basically guys in Holland, Germany, France, etc, who have purchased the full 4 discs from Mr T and end up selling the genuine UK one as they are never going to use it.

Was he not a bit of a d1ck?

It was Martin (Bluemonster) that found me the disc I have.. It was from Germany and cost around 60 quid and is the genuine Toyota disc that works perfectly....... Best bet is to scour eBay you will find one eventually .

[Mr.P]

Thank you - I have already started looking - no success so far but will keep trying.

[Mr.P]

Managed to get one for £59 from a guy in Poland. Thanks for all the advice - will report back when it arrives.

I have a full set of E12 discs (ex My 2008 T180) cost of post and packing only

Thank you for your offer - if it's still available I should like to take you up on it. Your email doesn't appear to be working.
