Any one tell me how I get the TMC bit to work. I have a dvd birdview sat nav system and it works fine. I have set everything up on the settings but nothing comes through about TMC. Do I have to pay for it? I have read elsewhere about different DVD's that have codes or something built in that allow uk TMC. I have searched the internet but found nothing of use. I don't have the nissan manual for sat nav.
Any help would be appreciated.

If the DVD you have has the TMC data on it (for the UK), then you should simply just need to enable TMC witihn the setup of the Birdview system.

However, if you are not on the latest map DVD, it might simply be that the TMC codes are not present on your DVD. Equally, if the X-Trail is not a very recent model, you may need to update the software to support it, or you may even find that the unit does not have the hardware to support TMC.

I would suggest a visit to your dealer and ask them.

Answering your other question, if the TMC codes are included on the DVD, then you have already paid for it within the cost of the DVD.

thanks for the quick reply
The car is a 2005 model and looking at the dvd there is nothing on it showing TMC. I suspect it was something extra you had to pay for when you bought the car. Will try the dealer next time I am there.

thanks - found an american version for a nissan maxima navigation birdview system but as its american it has nothing about TMC-RDS . Useful for other stuff though.

If you know of a uk manual with TMC info the a link would be useful
