Default Navigation while in Motion

It really sucks that you can't fully access all data entry features while in motion in the USA with Range Rovers. I don't believe this is a law, because their are other recent model vehicles that let you do this.https://landroverforums.com/micons/m13.gif

Anyway, I did some searching in this forum and noticed some people were able to hack their Range Rover's Navigation system. Has anyone been successful with the 08 model? It looks like it works for 06 and earlier models. I haven't read any successful stories for 08. If there is anyone out there that figured out how to do this for 08 models, please let me know.

I got several hits on this and not one reply. Does that mean no one cares or is it that no one knows? If some one knows, please help me out... I hate the fact that I can't enter navigation entrywhen I am in motion...

Sorry no idea on this one lol. I am much too afraid to try hacking any nav system and i'd have no idea what i'm doing.

Hmmm checked out another forum and from what I saw it doesn't look like any successful hacks on post '06 navs.

You could with the BMW navigation but not the current one (to the best of my knowledge). Definitely a liability thing andmany cars are like this but not all.

Lux is right. 03 through 05 Range navis are not limited while in motion. I believe they stopped it in 06 along with all other makes (could be wrong).

As far as the hack, I have no idea. SOrry.

You can type on my 02 while moving but it is ridiculous compared to my Garmin and quite limited too.
