Just an update on my sat nav.
I had previously tried two sat nav DVD units and a few DVDs - none were particularly good and it wasn't working as it should.
So, I bought another DVD unit with another DVD. This worked better and I started to get some progress.
The new unit still started at an odd place (a couple of miles from my daughter as it happens) near to where the dismantlers was. The GPS logo top left had a red line through it, but after I drove a few hundred yards or so (sometimes more), it picked up where I actually was. I could also set destinations and navigate properly.
I also bought another DVD.
So, now my questions really are why would the GPS not be seen when I start the car, but suddenly jump in after driving for a while?
The GPS antenna is a new Land Rover one - replaced in December. I have just ordered a cheap GPS antenna from Amazon to see if I can get that to work better and I might try my old one back on again.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks
