hahaha are u serious? exact same thing happened to me. I gave them a CAN-01 and it was faulty so ended up using one of their units aswell. My AVIC just turns off when i turn the key off, im not really fussed there.

I hope they looked after you :) I was back there last thursday to have some rear speakers fitted. Should be back there in a couple of months again for the reversing camera - where did you get yours from (reversing camera)? oh, and how did you get your maps updated to R18?

Yeah, since they may not know about the ACC power until you take out the key, I'm out $145 extra for their canbus unit if mine is not faulty... Got the camera from ebay. Here are some pics..

This is what it looks like from Avic unit. Picture is reversed and you get guide lines, dunno how useful they are! :)

As for maps, they are easy to update, I had R16.2 maps (PM me), you just need version 3.0 firmware on your avic (i have 4.0) as shown below:

Avic Firmware 4

Bluetooth Firmware

Map Version (Since R17, you can get traffic data if you are on Avic Firmware 3.0 or above)

Any results from the melb dyno day?

There's a thread here about it!

Gave the car a wash and detail, then pulled the rear sway bar bushes out and realigned them... Then it rained!!
