    Does anyone know whether the standard Discover Nav unit accepts UK postcodes.

    Can't see any mention of it anywhere and it makes no mention of this in the user manual for the Skoda equivalent unit (link posted elsewhere on this forum).

    Any Mk 7 GT owners out there that can confirm?

    I'm not getting my car till 4th March, but the dealer has sent me the manuals. The manual states you can search by postcode.

    EDIT: Sorry my manual is the the Discover Pro.

    Hmm, hope this isn't unique to the Pro. Anyone got the standard Nav unit who can confirm?

    Just pop into a VW dealer and look on any stock GT. On the Pro unit, you search by address and then there is a option to add the post code.... its a bit backwards compared to a trusty Tom Tom
    Personally I wouldn't trust any VW UK literature... its hardly been accurate up to date.

    Is that different from the rns 510?

    There you went to input an address but instead of that, just put in a post code and the nav system recognised it for what it was.

    Postcode entry works fine on the standard nav unit.

    Thanks for that confirmation. Was just concerned that they had reserved this basic feature for the Pro unit.

    It's easy to miss, look in bottom left hand corner of the screen where you're asked to input 'town'. It's abbreviated as 'Pstcode' or some thing similar. BTW, has anyone worked out whether it's possible to set navigation voice to override the radio?
