Took delivery of a new Outback 2.5i early August and just now getting my head around the Multi Entertainment Unit - Eclipse AVN827GA - like the car overall, this is very impressive
However, there is always a 'however', not happy with the outdated Satnav maps installed. According to the unit's info page, map date is 2010 Q3 which seems strange for a 2012 build car.
So I did a little bit of Google research and found the Eclipse web site -
ECLIPSE Car Navigation and Audio Systems | Fujitsu Ten
and a link to the 300+ pages owner's manual
http://www.eclipse-web.com/au/download/manual/avn827ga_en/avn/pdf/avn827ga_en.pdf
Further research found that the latest Naviextras supplied Aus/NZ map is dated 2012 Q2 and can be downloaded for USD$119.95

Not sure how often Naviextras update their maps but somewhat disappointed that Subaru haven't installed the latest available maps prior to sale of their new cars.
Asked about map updates with the local Subaru dealer's service department and by the answers not sure if they fully understand how this can be undertaken.

A case of watch this space.
Would be interested if any other owners are aware of this situation and have made enquires to their dealers or have approached Subaru Australia as to what happens next.
Comments welcomed.
