I heard back today that the issue was fixed, and I can confirm that I was able to install the update. NaviExtras updated the installable package.

That's what they did for me too. Nothing came of it - just got an email today letting me know its a known issue they're working on.

You have to download the software. Don't worry, its a moot point right now anyway since the update is broken.

NaviExtras Toolbox software.

I wonder if they will ever actually do something. Pay $1,200 for a "top of the line" headunit, and then this. Lol.

The same thing is happening to me on my 8000-NEX as well. Been in touch with Pioneer support, who have been useless.

Great - just got the 8000 for Christmas and now this.

Great information, thank you very much for sharing! I appreciate it.

Good info, thank you! I've followed these directions precisely but still run into the same error. I saw there was a place inside Naviextras to submit a Tech Support inquiry, which I have done now.

Ok so to follow up, I followed the instructions perfectly, but when I go back into the GPS with the USB stick installed and run Synctool, I receive a message stating: "An error occurred during initialization". Ugh, any thoughts?

Nice. Thank you for the information! I'll have to check this out. Any clue how often the maps are updated?

8000-NEX: All the guide mentions is going to Pioneer NaviExtras, and I've downloaded the Navi Toolbox software, but what exactly do I do? Do I have to actually connect my computer to the GPS via USB? (I definitely don't have a USB A to A cable)... I would appreciate any help you guys have to offer.

It is indeed a hiss, and I haven't noticed that it increases with engine RPM increase, but I will pay closer attention. It is the coupe, and to be honest, I don't know practically anything about how it was installed. I took it to a reputable local installer. Thanks for the tip - I tried this but no change I appreciate the suggestion though.

Hi all, I got the 8000NEX for Christmas, and as I know nothing about car audio, I had the system installed. Everything is great, except for a problem I'm having with the audio. I have a 2010 Honda Civic EX with the stock audio system. Everything is EXTREMELY loud, and there is an audible static noise present at all times (even when music isn't playing - its not crackling or popping, just a steady ambient noise). Are there settings I can tweak? Or is this something to do with the audio system that's installed in the car? It is very annoying to always hear the static, and the volume
