SL/R230: Compass
#1
Compass
I have not been able to find a screen that has a compass, it seems that the only way I can determine direction is by having the nav set to North up, and then seeing what direction the arrow is pointed, there must be a compass function, I thought it would be with the outside temp. reading, but no luck.
Every $10,000 car has a compass function, so I must be missing something.

If that does'nt work you could alway's get a bunch of $10,000.00 cars with what yours cost.

The only 'S' or 'W' I see under the RPM is depending on the Sport / Winter setting (S/W switch)..

Basically if you have your nav off you will not find anything, but if you have your nav on and do not choose a route it will only show direction of travel like N, S, W, E.
I hope this helps and if you still dont find it just buy one of those round ones and stick it on the dash.

1) Its 8:00 am and the sun is almost in my face while going to work.
2) Its 5:00 pm and the sun is almost in my face while going home.
Which direction am I travelling in both instances?
