DiscoLad Posted September 24, 2008 Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 Hi guys! I just installed my Z3 and have it setup with audio and traffic from XM. They finally got it to work after 'refreshing' my signal 4 times. Prior to that it had just said 'updating'. I was excited to get it working, only to discover that the only 'traffic event' listed is a generic message saying 'This service provides you with metro traffic'. I have heard of tons of constructions and accidents today, yet none are listed through my XM Traffic. If the reporting is always this poor it does not seem worth the extra $150/year they charged me to add to my plan. Does anyone else have experience with this in Vancouver, BC??

kryngle Posted September 24, 2008 Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 Im in Toronto and I subscribed to this service as well and I can't REALLY complain about it. Im gettin up to date messages about accidents, construction, etc and the icons all over the screen. I only took for 3 months JUST to see what its about and then I got my renewal and my XM Navtraffic was free. But as for that message ur gettin I never seen or heard of it before.

I wonder if the GTA just collects are reports the data better than Vancouver. It seems to be instituted in theory here, though there is no actual data being transmitted. The transcanada highway is littered with construction here right now and none of it shows up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
