i have an 04 6mt and mine is silver black

 

that looks ghetto

 

Dan,
That does look ghetto, the Mt fugi even looks pixelated. I would definitely see about having the bios upgraded to at least what you had/ aka what you paid for when you bought the car.

Anyone have a pic of what the 05 screen looks like?

 

Tell me about it...

I'll give ICA a call. They have a NAV support team. I'll ask those bozos...

 

2004 The screen is black with a silver logo and yellow bar on the bottom

 

Let us know how you make out.
Good luck!!!

 

In a perfect world, my screen would be a black background w/silver Infinity symbol. It appears rather dark grayish w/Infiniti emblem in silver. Has yellow band with "please wait" written in it while it's thinking.......

I imagine the color silver vs red is controlled by the DVD for the nav system. My DVD is a 6.2 release and my coupe is an O4 with vin# 802xxx. The '05 models use a 7.x DVD and they can not be interchanged with the 6.x versions.

Hope this helps

 

According to this TSB, the 03-05 coupe uses the 6.x DVD version. Only the 06 G35 uses the 7.x series DVDs.

 

The startup screen has nothing to do with the CD version. The CD holds map information only. The proof for that would be that they changed my control unit, but left the same CD I had (version 6.2), and now the screen has changed...

The startup screen is part of the built-in management software hard coded into the control unit. That's why I think they gave me a control unit for the 03' models. Even though, when I called back to inquire about this, they claimed they ordered the control unit using my VIN, so it has to be an 04' unit.

My response to the dealer's answer.... I raise the BS flag

 

Well, no luck. I called ICA and talked to their "NAV support team". It appears to be that that group has nothing to do with Infiniti. They just give you support with operating the unit and answer question about the maps.
I'll show the screen to the service associate at my dealer next time I bring my car for service. I'll ask him to show me the NAV on one of the 04-05-06 models they have on the lot.
