Fuel economy
Sat Nav, Drive by Wire, Rain Sensing wipers
The Sat Nav data disc that I received with my Honda Accord is absolute rubbish. It keeps placing me in the middle of the North Sea, and completely loses the plot. Honda have replaced the unit already on the first service, because they state that the FM radio frequency 101.8 MHz (Century FM) in the NE of England is in conflict with the Sat Nav frequency. However, after being replaced, it still loses the plot and fails to navigate. The data disc provided by Alpine Electronics also fails to come up to scratch as it has a poor street index database. Quite often it will fail to recognise a postcode or street name that has been built for more than 30 years, even Teeside University campus is not recognised, Shotley Bridge Hospital is not listed, nor is Sedgefield Community Hospital, and all have been standing for more than the past couple of years, or since the previous version of data disc was written. Save yourself the £2500 cost of the upgrade, and buy a TomTom Go unit for a tenth of the cost at £250.
