Mr.AlMuhairi Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 Hello Everyone, I am very happy to have joined your forum. I ordered my Avic-D2 last week and I should be getting it pretty soon. I was wondering if its possible to play other navigation maps on the Avic-D2, like Australia DVD maps, or Europe, or the middle east. Thanks an I hope to hear from someone soon.

GnatGoSplat Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 I don't know for sure, but I know there is a strong possibility you can use European map discs. The AVIC-X1 and X1R are the European versions of the N1 and N2. The D1/D2 uses the same map discs as the N1/N2, so I think a the Europe maps for X1/X1R should work in a D1/D2. They also have the same names - CNDV50, CNDV60, etc. I don't know about anything other than US and Europe though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.AlMuhairi Posted October 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 Thanks man. Because I might go to Grad school overseas and i was thinking maybe if there are maps that can work on the unit i can take it with me. Im still looking for map dvd's that i can play on my unit.

whtcrxghst Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 They use a different radio tuner overseas. You will have issues there (if you ever use your radio, some people don't) [quote name="Mr.AlMuhairi"]Thanks man.

I bought a pioneer radio from the Post exchange when I was living in Germany and had to set it. They might have found a way to make it a Standard feature. Check with Pioneer on that!!

cntrylvr79 Posted October 7, 2006 Report Share Posted October 7, 2006 You can't change the area on a d1/2. to my knowledge you can't on any of the avic series. I can't be 100% though on the z1 since that beasty has a lot of menus I haven't gotten a chance to dig into. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
