Well i'm not sure of the place you are talking about but I do know a guy named Steve and he call his business Turbo Tunes. He is a great guy & he is in Michigan. He has repaired multiple units of mine & has the best customer svc ever. He knows these units inside & out, I actually have an appointment with him on Monday for the same problem your having. His # is (419)341-3712. When you contact him let him know that "Isley" refered you. hope this helps!

Thanks for the info and I'll let him know of the reference.

My screen on my N1 unit just went out/ blank screen, everything else still works. There is a person on this site that does repairs but I can't find his info again. The shop is in Michigan.

What is the name?

I installed the Avic D3 awhile ago and just got the xm/nav. I have a 2004 Chevy Silverado that came from the GM factory XM ready with the XM Antenna mounted to the roof. I want to use this antenna with my Avic D3 and XM but I cant figure out how. So for the time being I just used the antenna that came with PIONEER GEX-P10XMT. Is there a way to use my factory mounted antenna. I called XM and they said yes but i cant figure it out. I hope someone is able to help me out

 

Current Setup:

Pioneer Avic-D3

Pioneer GEX-P10XMT

 

Here's a picture to show the antenna I am talking about:

Can I swap my old OnStar antenna with the one that's in the picture? Would there be a problem since the antenna is mounted on the other side?

FYI: The ZWINBACK code is still good but the price is not $77 anymore, but $88.78.

edit: Sorry it's still $77 plus tax = $88.78

I thought it would be a great idea to post up anything y'all have noticed about the upgrades. The good and the bad.

 

So far I have found a lot of new roads and updated streets in my city. Some street that had no names before now have names on em. The layout is much more improved for me and I notice now wherever I am in my city, it will let you know what Borough I am in which is sweet. I also find that when doin a destination search and some surrounding areas have the same street, the layout to select what city u want is MUCH more straight forward. Instead of it saying "dufferin Street/Oakville" it will just have the cities all laid out and all u gotta do is select whatever surrounding city u want. Will be doin more testing on this... Oh yeah, now on the XM radio, u can actually get more of the artist and song names displayed out. hope next year Pioneer plans to release a newer version to the older model navi's. Let's get a new interface Pioneer

Which model head unit do you have and what version did you upgrade from? I have a D3 and upgraded from CNDV-80MT, I did not notice any of the improvements that you did.

I have the n1 hu w/n3 brain. I upgraded from the 80mt to the 90mt and the only thing I've noticed is the XM radio display update. Since I play my mp3 more than XM or the regular radio, that's not worth the update price. Like others, 3 yr old streets are still mssing.

No, the upgrade shouldn't lock your system.

Why didn't you wait a few days and upgrade to the 90mt

Who's collecting the $10 on the pool? I think so far I've read 3 different people.

I just hope we don't have to do another bypass to the system, like some of us had to do when the 80 series came out.

Has anyone tried to get NavWeather added on yet?

I have the Pioneer xm/NavTraffic tuner but I'm still on trial and can't upgrade until after. I went on xm radio website and after logging on it said I could add it to my system.

Just wondering.....

Just called XM and got 3 months free. I just told them I brought a new chevrolet tahoe and the dealer told me to call for the trail service. Didn't get the navtraffic b/c I would have to pay $9.99 b/c my xm was free.

Pioneer is selling the GEX-P10XMT XM NavTraffic Digital Satellite Tuner for $115 instead of $200.

Cheaper than some on ebay.

Yes, a N2 or N3 brain will work with a N1 HU.

You need the nav disc in to set a new route or other things.

Thanks but I had the system sent to Rich from ebay and everything is working fine.

Had same problem. Had to replace the GPS antenna.

Anyone using the XDV-P90 6-Disc DVD Player with their system?

I think most are using the XDV-P6 system.

Try Rich. Just give him a call. I used him to fix my N1.

I was reading the posts from people that updated their D-Series and all the problems they were having afterwards. I just wanted to know what happens after updating the N-Series with the 80s.

How is your update so far? Are you happy with the updates or did it cause problems? I went from the 40 series to the 70 series and that's a big upgrade. One reason for the upgrade is I want to add NavTraffic to my unit.

u need the hide-a-way hooked up as well.

My GM SUV did not come w/ XM radio, however I swapped out the Onstar combo antenna for an Onstar/XM antenna, used an extension cable and a smb female to female adapter to wire to the Pio XM tuner. Works great.

 

If you dont have the OEM wiring, I can get you the links for what I ordered.

Can You explain or show how you did this?

I am plaining on adding the PIONEER GEX-P10XMT to my system and wanted this mod.

Thanks for the info.
