When you put the MkIV in, did you make sure to drive around for 1-5 miles so the GPS could acquire you?

No, didn't know I have to do that. I bought it from Europe and it had some german addresses saved. Deleted all of them, how am I supposed to calibrate it?

Turn it on of course, put the display screen in map mode, and you should see the GPS box in the upper right corner. Drive around until it starts filling up with little green dots.

Oh well, I've done that, I mean as I drive the green icon on the top right corner gets full with white dots.

Hmm... I am assuming you have not inputed in a destination yet.

Input a destination (try a place a couple miles away), start driving for a bit (so the car can determine your avg. speed) and the car will calculate how long it thinks it will take you to get there.

Thats what arrival time states. A distance has to be plugged into the navigation system for it to work...

Maybe a dumb question, but do you have the vehicle's date/time set?

Assuming the answer is yes, if you still have the MkIII and put it back in does it work properly?

Ditto What Jeff Said.

You Must Set The Calendar First To Set The Clock,

Yes, I re-set the date and time again -- no luck. I drove 60 miles today from LA to Irvine, CA and this thing was still showing --:--pm. Did input my destination HOME, no change.
Unfortunatelly, I don't have my MK3 anymore and I can't test it. MK3 was working.
I saw on the NAV system calibration manual some steps to perform in order to calibrate the NAV system, but I don't know if that will help.

When I did my virgin Navi upgrade, I was told that the car had to be re-coded to get the ETA working properly. I am still driving with --:-- showing on the ETA for over 6 months now.
