The 06+ Prius have the new hi-res MFDs.

flyingtux, make sure you have the right disc for the right MFD. There are two discs - one for the older screen and one for the new one.

 

I can't even get a copy of my original disk, unmodified, to work. It goes through the loading process ok, but then says "unable to read data. Check if map DVD is correct."

 

Does anyone have a 2006 Prius with an original U40 464210-0701 Ver 5.1 disk in that they where able to get working?

 

Should these hacks work on a Highlander Hybrid as well - 2005?

Thanks!

 

Maybe, you'll have to give it a try. I don't think anyone here has tried.

 

I have a 2006 Prius with original Toyota DVD U40 464210-0700 ver.05.1. I was able to make a working backup of my DVD.

My DVD drive is a Lite-ON SHM-165P6S (firmware MS0R).
The media I used is Memorex DVD+R DL (media ID: RITEK/D01).

I found the number of sectors on the original Toyota DVD: (it was 3797424)
I extracted an image of the original Toyota DVD:
I set my drive to write DVD+ media with DVD-ROM book type:
Then I burned a copy of the disc:
The copy loaded up in my Prius without a hitch. So now I can keep the original inside and out of the heat.
