Radio /Sat nav Screen (RT6)

[renagade]

Hi Guy's here I go again, Looking at other cars with screen for radio/sat nav do you think that the screen on my 2011 c5 1.6 e-hdi vtr+ nav is able to be updated?? Some thing that looks alive. I have only had the car two weeks so when the newness has worn off I will leave it alone and just drive it. Ho and by the way went to Sainsbury's to get the weekly shop and some |||||||||| has creased the drivers door for me. That was nice of them. I have ordered som small suckers of the bay and hope I can pull it back.

Simply - no. It's not just a Display screen, it has a lot of processors inside that work with the Head Unit to provide other functionality. The are several types of display screen - the one you have and the one for the Navidrive 3D and RT6 units. Be careful with these as they are between £700-800 minimum to replace!

Agreed, all of this stuff is so integrated these days its probably impossible.

Have you tried to customize the appearance through the menus? You can change the colour scheme - one scheme more or less matches the main instrument panel. And there are map options - 3D, 2D and a couple of variations. And you can choose which types of POI show up. I've just sold mine on after 5 years+ and although the screen is not the most modern it was clear and useable and not at all distracting.
