Morning,

Hard to explain so if I dont make sense ill load a photo later........

Im using sat nav and im on a road, theres a roundabout up ahead in half a mile and i have to turn left. My sat nav screen above radio shows its a left turn......... however the little picture of the arrow behind the steering wheel shows a straight on arrow until im close to roundabout then shows a turning at last minute.

Is there a way of altering this? I keep sitting in the wrong lanes then having to change

Thats normal, DIS is showing present, but in mmi you see "future" also. Keep eye one "distance" to next "turn-change" in DIS(you get idea-info when change will be) and also keep your voice guide not in muted mode or not on very silent - its usualy tells you in advance "keep left"! You cant "override-change" this!

Matter of opinion. In my view, a good way of forewarning the driver.

Agree its a matter of opinion, forewarning the driver that drive straight and in 0.2 miles we will be doing something, could be left, could be right, couldt be a roundabout, who knows, tell you when we are closer!

You can satisfy some of the people some of the time, but never all of the people all of the time.:3some:

I use the MMI more than the DIS, with "zoom in on junction" switched on. So in 0.2 miles I know I will be turning left.
