Does she say that straight away? Or do you have some time to say what you want ?
Try to speak louder <_< "Map" is pretty easy, and "limit"... I usually have problems with the CD menu

Itis important to wait for the "acoustic signal" (ding dong) to sound before speaking. Then use simple commands at first.
I have found the following to work and be useful.
"Map" "address book" "CD changer" "disc 1" "dial name"
these voice inputs together with simple I drive inputs make the whole system a joy to use.
Good luck

Just had a quote from the dealer for retrofitting the Voice input, according to the accessories broucher, the cost of the parts are ?50. The dealer quoted me for ?199 including the parts + 2 hours labour +VAT.
I just think this is too expensive for what it is. But they have agreed to activate my MP3 for free as I have to get the software updated anyway.
Do you guys think it is worth it?

20" Hartge Nova 7. Previously 19" staggered 172s
Factory ordered it is ?290 from memory. Cheapest I recall was about ?180 so that sounds fair to me.
Mt dealer won't commit himself as they havn't done one before.
