I just got my z120bt and on the maps i can't see all the street names i approach. Is there a way i can turn it on? or is this how pioneer made there maps?

or is this how pioneer made there maps?

Yes.

My one disappointment but I knew this prior to purchase through all the research I did here and various reviews elsewhere. Weighing all the pros and cons I still went with the 120. Love the interface, iPod/iPhone integration, and VR. I know the kenwood 9960 has VR as well bit didn't want to spend quite that much and not as much a fan of the 9960 interface and lag I've seen out of it. However if navigation is your biggest priority I'd suggest taking it back and getting a kenwood. Overall the nav has been fine for me even if it's not quite as good as Navigon on my iPhone.

I noticed that the street names were not displaying on the maps as I drove around. Today I finally connected up the VSS wire and now the maps are displaying names all over. The street I'm on, the streets two streets over, the highway I'm paralleling, etc. Is your VSS connected?

Z120 in 2011 Outback.

The VSS has nothing to do with this.

I've noticed that sometimes my Z120 doesn't display any street names on the map, but a fix I've found is to zoom in then zoom back out, that fixes the issue 90% of the time.
