Seeking Info: Infiniti G35 DVD Navigation System

Feb 12, 2005 18 Replies

Dear readers,

I recently bought an Infiniti G35 with the GPS option. While I am waiting for the car to be ready, I was wondering if I could document myself on that technology, since it probably is the only accessory for which I will need to read the manual.

I seek information about the Infiniti G35 DVD Navigation System. I have seen everything there is to read on Infiniti's website and asked many questions to my car salesman, yet I do not have all the details put together. I am interested in the technical specifications of this device; its OS, its brand, the way to program it, etc.

Unfortunately, googling around has not helped very much. I would appreciate if someone could post some online or offline references on the subject. Lastly, the salesman mentioned that I could later upgrade the system by buying a disc from Infiniti; is there any alternative to that?

Thank you, Max

UPDATE:

I still need more info, but for the record, here is what I found so far:

The maker of the GPS software (or is it only the data?) seems to be Zenrin:

I have a 2003 coupe and I still don't understand how to work the climate system. Sorry I can't help you with the GPS--I have an aftermarket Garmin

2610 navigator. I can say that I find the GPS very useful.

Don't count on that being the only part of the manual you have to read. I have a 2003 coupe and I still don't understand how to work the climate system. Sorry I can't help you with the GPS--I have an aftermarket Garmin

2610 navigator. I can say that I find the GPS very useful so I expect you will too.

Because it is made by Nissan?

Why are you asking such a silly question? :-) Infinity = Nissan

I thought Infinity is a luxury division of Toyota?

My other unit is Ford MustangConvertible

©2005 Lexus, a Division of Toyota Motor Sales, USA, Inc.

And it is Infiniti, not Infinity.

"To Infiniti and Beyond!" Buzz Lightyear, 1995

Because Infiniti is made by Nissan and there is no separate Infiniti news group, at least not on Earthlink's news server.

Because Infiniti is a Nissan brand.

Really? I didnt understand three other answers, you sure Infiniti is Nissan?

I mean White is Black?? Red is Green?

Cadillac is made by GM. Lincoln is made by Ford. Lexus is made by Toyota. Acura is made by Honda. Infiniti is made by Nissan.

Dear collaborators,

Here is the user guide I was looking for! (It is originally for the Nissan 350Z, but as I see it, it is basically the same technology.

I am still looking for more technical information about this nav system, but I will settle for this until I can get my hand on something a little crunchier! ;)

The thread remains open for your input.

Works great as it's integrated to the car's computer and will track you even with no satellite available.

What else do you want to know?

ARE YOU SURE???

I MEAN POSITIVE, TOTALLY 100%?>??
