Navigation messed up
Hi all,
so today when i was driving towards a town that had my HRE wheels my navigation got all messed up. I took a turn off the road but it thought that i just kept driving forward. Up to that moment it worked just fine. Now i'm in Helsinki (the capital of Finland), and according to the system my car is in a lake 50 km from here. Has anyone had a similar problem, and if so, what was the solution? I've already ordered a time for service at my local dealership, but i would of course prefer to get it fixed asap, so if anyone has any advice i would appreciate it! I also noticed that the signal strength is to 1 bar when it used to be full.
Cheers.

Yeah well the weird thing is that it knew where to turn off the distronic. In Finland you can only buy the distronic package with navigation because the distronic wavelengths interfere with some militarycrap. Anywho, the gps knows when i'm nearing such a position and turns off the distronic, which it did in exactly the right spot even though the map was waaaay off. Seems to me like some kind of "syncing" problem between the hardware and the software.
