If you cannot change it using the programme then I suggest you try another disc or learn German.

Try this, my Hilux probably has a very similar unit.

Press INFO button (bottom right), 4 large icons appear the third on the right of which is the language button (has a picture of a book or similar) press that and all languages will appear in a row, press GB and you should be home and dry.

Appologies couldn't help it. a friend bought a Jap import with sat nav and no matter what we did it would only speak in Japanese.

Hope you solve the problem.
