Nav System Malfuction, Please Help
Nav system shows me in another part of the city for 5 days now. Figured it would reset once I turned my car off. Used the reset (put key in ignition, don't turn for 30 seconds, lock/unlock doors) and while that did reboot the system it still shows me in another part of the city.

Any other suggestions/thoughts besides go to the dealer.

This started happening after my 2 year service on Friday..

Have you tried driving in a circle like 5 times? Seriously.

Otherwise, perhaps disconnect battery for a couple of minutes.

I would eject the DVD and then put it back in. I had a problem and this helped me.

Had the same thing happen to me. Eject the DVD and put back in. The driving in circles is for re-establishing your direction on the map
