Changing the NAVI voice
Hi I am new to your forum!
A year ago...I changed the Navigator voice from female to male (stupid... )
Now I don't remember how I did it and I cannot change it back! I think I did it with a MODIC but I don't remember in which menu that was...

Any ideas?

The older NAV computers MKI (and MKII maybe??) had the male voice. The MKIII and MKIV should have a female voice. I didn't think it was possible to change it.

I didn't know you could change the nav voice. I fooled around with the system for hours, but never managed to do that. I named my nav lady Gretchen. You can change the nav voice on the Volvo, but they're both boring, monotone voices that sound horrible. I wish my new car had nav...

I have the MKIII Navi and yes it is possible to change the voice in a BMW Dealer that has the BMW Diagnostics (MODIC or GT1)

But didn't you say you did it yourself? Do you have the MODIC computer?

How did you get your hands on one of those??? I'm guessing you probably work for some kind of a tech shop!
