alternative route pop up

on the 2012 westie with the hard drive sat nav, how do you get rid of the pop up that wants you to confirm whether you want its alternative route when there's slow traffic ahead...i never take that option and i get frustrated having to press 'no' every time....
i have looked in the tmc bit but couldn't find anything.. ... - .- -.

irritating isn't it....... Big Cry

I was trying to turn it off too the other week, but I'm sans FF at the moment so can't go and have a root around to see if i found a solution, and my memory is like a sieve so i can't even remember if i did find a solution, but i have a niggling suspicion that there was a setting for it. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

I hope you find a solution because it drives me mad.
It always appears just when I need to be concentrating.

its defo linked to the tmc somehow....the more i think about it the more i wonder if its worth having the tmc on as the information always seems to be out of date.... ... - .- -.

I never used the TMC in mine and don't get any annoying pop-ups.

Then again I also think its fun to confuse the sat nav by diverting to a slightly different route when I fancy an alternative.
It's like having an annoying passenger in the car telling you you should have turned left back there!! Rolling with laughter 2021 D350 Fifty Edition - Carpathian Grey

My preference is to use the Sat Nav screen for the north up map overview and use my phone with the 3D direction view, in a holder attached to an aircon vent, with google maps for navigation. Google traffic is real time and rerouting actually works. 2012 5.0L S/C

that's kinda what i do on long road trips...the FF's screen zoomed out for the route and north up and a small chinese nav mounted on the front vent....this little gem runs i go primo and also tells me when i'm over the speed limit which is very handy when abroad...

in the U.K., i find the FF's nav more than adequate... ... - .- -.
