XM NavTraffic

dwx · 08-02-2012, 05:23 PM

Anyone have this or know how it is supposed to work? If it's enabled does it show realtime traffic on the map like other units or does it just show alerts and route around traffic?

I have been attempting to get this enabled on my BRZ since apparently it's not enabled in the XM trial for some reason. I've talked to a few people at XM and they are telling me the radio doesn't support NavTraffic even though it says so in the BRZ brochure and it's on the list of supported cars on XM's website.

I called SoA and they were pretty clueless as well but said they would look into it and get back to me. They didn't know what it was supposed to actually do for you on the nav system and thought it was already enabled in the trial. I told them XM specifically told me it wasn't enabled and said it couldn't be enabled.

Also I have another vehicle with it and it lists it as enabled under my online account, the BRZ one doesn't list it.

I have noticed that it shows you real time traffic. it just has symbols that show where it it's and if you are in route it takes you around the traffic. It was all ready enabled in my car.

Yeah I've heard of a couple guys who had it enabled and it's still working, some who had it working for like a week and then it stopped, and some like me who just can't seem to get it enabled...
