Hi all

today I noticed my sat nav thought I was near Chester when I was on the M6 and when I got home it was still in the chesterfield area even though I am now in Leeds.

audi said turn it off and on, nope.

any ideas. I read somewhere something about water causing an issue with the receivers but can't believe that would be the case in 2012.

i have the hdd nav with online services (not being used due to the plethora of phone Bluetooth issues).

is there a way of checking how many satellites the car is receiving a signal from?

It sounds like your GPS antenna has failed. It's in the sharkfin aerial assembly on the roof. Get you car into the dealers and have them replace it under warranty.

Good luck!!
