Murcielago Sat Nav? Why not the Audi Unit?

[lambo_xx]

I was just wondering why Lamborghini decided to use The Kenwood system rather than the Audi Unit that they use in the Gallardo? Is it better?

Miles better. I brought it for my gallardo last month. The audi one is not properly i-pod enabled, meaning, with the audi one you have to scroll with the ipod for artists,playlists,etc - with the kenwood, you can use the touch screen. The sat nav system itself is more advanced.

LB - how did you get the old unit out?!

If his cleaning methods are anything to go by, with a crowbar.

Yes, BUT, the Kenwood system can't really cope if you lose satellite coverage (eg in long tunnels) and in that respect behaves just like the windscreen mounted Garmin it really is

Ipod, sat nav, who needs them. I like getting lost, means it takes longer to get home. I have hardly ever even turned the thing on.

Didnt get it out myself (so no crowbar) - got a audio company to do it and program it in etc.
