jimbob1989 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Hi, Still haven't got mine... yet!!! But I have seen that the Fiesta supports mobile navigation with compatible mobile phones and have a link to a ford website that tells you a bit more about it (pairing phone and seein direction arrows on screen): http://www.ford-mobile-connectivity.com/mo...gation/overview A couple of questions!!! Mainly - has anyone actually got this to work and is there any supplied software on a CD that comes with the manuals etc. of the car because it says there is supplied software?!?! Thanks for helping me out with this! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darude Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 I also want to know a bit more about this... I buying a Nokia 6220 Classic. This should have this feature. What phone have you got jimbo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulworthing Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Looks like it only works with Nokia - shame as I prefer Sony Ericsson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darude Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Wrong thread. Whats wrong? Anyway.... I got my Nokia 6220 Classic, I can't seem to get any Mobile Navigation working. Not even bluetooth music streaming! There are no extra menus in the Ford Fiesta phone mode. The only thing I get extra on my Nokia (in comparison to my old Sony Ericsson w800i) is Signal strength and call list (missed, received, dailed calls) option. Also phone book is a lot quicker. Can anyone shed some light on this Ford Mobile Navigation? Maybe even some information from a Ford technician? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know how I could get in touch with Ford, perhaps their direct e-mail? I've tried through their website two weeks ago, no reply yet.

adzmcp Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 The mobile Navigation is avalible to order as 1st July (Its on next quarters price list) Its £350 for Zetec, Zetec S and Titanium Models. Think off top of my head it was £425 for Style + and Below. Mobile Nav is above bluetooth USB. If you have bluetooth or have ordered normal bluetooth or Bluetooth USB the Nav will not work as the fiesta is not programed for it. We jumped on Vista and spec afew with Mobile Nav so cant wait to see em Adz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it not possible to upgrade the existing bluetooth + USB software to work with Mobile Navigation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannyhilton Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Has anyone got this up and running? While I realise it will not work in Australia, it'd be great to know if it works as I'm sure there's some kind of hack to get Aussie maps up!

RCJ Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 i have sat nav on my iPhone, and if im connected by bluetooth, when the Instructions (Turn left etc...) the music dims down and the instructions come through the Speakers then the music comes back up again. If thats what you mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If thats what you mean? I currently have the tomtom application on my iPhone that does that too. It's quite nifty, especially now as you can change tracks using the steering wheel controls. I was just seeing if anyone had opted for this optional sat nav system offered by Ford. It looks very good, especially being integrated into the existing display. In terms of being better than the tomtom application, probably not, but it'd be great to see what others think of this system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCJ Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 http://www.ford.co.uk/AboutFord/News/CompanyNews/2010/SatNav i like the look of this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2011fiesta Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 :-o i want!!! Not sure if I can justify 299 + dealer fitting charges though. Why didn't this come out before I bought my tomtom! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casca Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 http://www.ford.co.uk/AboutFord/News/CompanyNews/2010/SatNav i like the look of this That is very neat. Any idea how you input directions to it? Does it work in conjucntion with Ford's Sync/cell phone nav system? We have sync here and it's nice, but it does not give a visual representation of directions or an idea of what turn is coming up till you're just about there. Also, I don't think you'll be hacking into the system to get maps for anything that isn't already there working since all the cell phone does is tells Ford navigation servers where you are so that that system can send you the directions. It doesn't actually use the cell phone for anything other then finding your position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irononreverse Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 It doesn't actually use the cell phone for anything other then finding your position. What's the point in that? Why don't they just bung a GPS module in and be done with it? I would like the ability to have satnav built in, and put that screen to use, but map updates would be a bit fiddly, I suppose.

merlin Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 I also want to know a bit more about this... I buying a Nokia 6220 Classic. This should have this feature. What phone have you got jimbo? Make sure you get a spare battery. Its the only phone I,ve owned you can fully charge,switch off overnight and then when you switch it on you find the battery has lost power! And I tried 2 diff nokia battery's. Good with bluetooth phonebook in Fiesta tho. Shame the GPS couldn't find a satellite if you stood surrounded by a dozen of them 20 ft away.

merlin Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Does look nice but restricted to just use in the car. You probably wont be able to put it in your pocket and use it as you walk. Plus how does it update? New maps, POI's etc,. I prefer my tomtom and photo of my mini fiesta leading the way on its screen. And finally, how many of you would actually place your satnav that high up out of your normal line of sight?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And finally, how many of you would actually place your satnav that high up out of your normal line of sight?? It's just Garmin Nuvi 1255t navigation that gets a place in the mirror. It can be taken out and used outside. It gets updates just as like any other portable Garmin navigation system. Here are 2 ' how-to ' video guides (sorry, is in german but the video speaks for itself : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlin Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Having watched the video you can take it out. You just need to carry a screw driver with you everywhere you go. Not that practical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amberes Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I always have a (few) screwdrivers in my car ... Kidding, only showed with pictures and video's that there is nothing ' special ' on the system ... it's just a mirror with a separate place for a standard cheap garmin gps and a 12 volt wire. A cell phone with free navigation is alot more handy to take out ... Nokia's for example. But then those can give small problems also ... no combination phone bluetooth and guiding voice from the cell phone over the car Speakers, one has to make a choice.

Thanks for helping me out with this! :) Ford only offers it as an option on NEW cars. You need a cellphone with Symbian 60 operating system : http://www.ford-mobile-connectivity.com/mobile_navigation/compareNavigation You'll get something like this : Ford delivers a SD-card with the navigation software ( 23 west-european countries incl. ),a usb cable, and a gps-mouse/internal antenne. The software runs on the cell phone and voice guidance works over the cars Speakers. In our Fiesta MK7, the screen at the middle of the dash is being used to display an arrow and some additional information. On other cars, the screen between the speedo and rev. meters is used. It costs alot for what it's worth, specially now that navi software on Nokia phones is free.
