GPS Has Wrong Position
So last week, I noticed that the position on my GPS was wrong. I was on a major road, and it showed me driving in a forest with no roads. I looked for a while to somehow reset it, but no luck. I took it into the dealer. Not sure if the guy knew what the deal was, but either way they were able to reset it somehow and it had the right position. That was Saturday.
I got in my car to go back home tonight, and it happened again. It's close to where I am regionally, but no where near the right road. Anyone else experience this? Am I going to have to go back to the dealer again?? I'm an accountant so from now until April, I don't have time to bring it in....

not to insult ur intelligence but make sure you are zoomed in all the way.
sometimes its very easy to touch/move the knob and not even notice it

Hey Angelo, yeah I'm zoomed in all the way, and there was an instance where i was on a major road and it says I'm in a forest. I mean it turns when I turn, it's just in the wrong place.

Perhaps another W204 owner can help?
