How do you update the sat nav system?
Being told to exit at every junction whilst on a motorway is pXXXXXX me off!!

The easiest way is to stick a garmin on top of the sat nav screen , new maps just help the oem sat nav to screw up on new roads as well as old ones  At work

New software comes on a newer satnav disc

What irritates me more than anything with regards to the SatNav issues, and it was the same with my previous Porsche's, is that their is no recourse to the manufacturer. I appreciate LR, and other car makers, just use a mainstream supplier (forget who it is) for the system and so have their hands tied, but it is simply not right that we cannot "log a fault" and get LR and the system manufacturer to fix it.

Try driving up the A12 to Ipswich, and set the satnav accordingly. It is straightforward as it is only the dual-carriageway A12 you will be on. However, it insists on taking you off at Colchester thru the town centre, and then back onto the A12!  Chris

That's because Colchester is such a nice town

I think there was a topic on this I updated mine and the same thing happened I left it and on the next drive it all came back on with the updated software 07my Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Baltic Blue,Privacy Glass,Ebony black leather,Land rover detachable towbar,S/S Side bars,Climair wind deflectors,Bramble Rash,

rover60, mine did the same, put the updated disc, waited and waited got bored after thirty minutes, turned the ignition off and went in have tea, came out afterwards (got out of the washing up) and nothing but an error screen, thought I had b******** it so thought a trip to the stealer was in order. Next morning came out started it up and it started updating again, drove for twenty minutes and it all started working. p****d off with a Digital Keyboard Warrior

Hi again,

After 30 min of waiting, I turn de ignition off and went to dinner.
After that, returned to the car an turned on the ignition and wait 1h30. It fixed itself.
Mysterious....

All ended well.

I had a similar problem until I read the book and learnt how to use the navigation by setting up the priorities of a route and now it works just fine .

In short: Read The Book, as I believe there is no problem with the system, it’s just learning to use it that takes some time.  2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.
Stornoway Grey with Ebony Black Pleather, Clear Indicators, Body Side Mouldings etc.

Can anyone advise me how much it costs to have the new maps and software on? I got delivery of the car yesterday, and the maps are from 2007-2008...

About £140 for a disc update

I have a set of 2008-2009 for sale though if that helps
