Does anyone know where I would be able to obtain or purchase a program disc for the navigation on a 2001 QX4. I have the map disc but when I insert into the navigation the screen displays "Replace with a program disc" any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

That's the kind of odd piece you're most likely to find on eBay. The problem with early nav systems is that they relied on discs for updating. Even if you find what you're looking for you'll end up navigating with 18 year old maps. Ever considered replacing the entire unit with something that has modern features and usability?

I've checked eBay and Infiniti dealerships with no luck. The main reason I would like to fix it is because the climate controls are integrated into the navigation unit. As of right now I can't use my A/C :frown:

Actually, use this link to get the updated nav disc. I am going to order one as well since I need it.

Cheaper than GM and Ford dealerships who ask for $140-160 for their yearly updates.

brickbox I contacted customer service from the link you provided and was told the purchase is only for the map data cd and no program cd is included.
