I'm not sure! I bought an up to date sat nav disc off ebay a few years ago, when it arrived it was a copy but works perfectly well.

Read this post the other day so I thought I had better see if my old Garmin Satnav I got back in 2004 and now, not often, used in my Triumph Dolomite works still. Being a tight old NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD- and not wanting to pay for the upgrades its never had one so expected it not to work. But it does so its had no effect on it at all.
Could it be this is just one of those internet things that are not true, or something put about by the manufacturers to get a boost in falling Satnav sales. Has anyone had an old Satnav fail to work since this date? |

I noticed this morning the time on the infotainment screen in the Kia was still on Winter time It's supposed to set it automatically, I went into the menu to correct it and the GPS system was unchecked so I ticked it and the time set itself correctly. I wonder if this has been the cause of the wrong addresses I've been getting lately when I've put in the correct postcode When it went in for it's first service they did a software update to the cars computer system, I wonder if that unchecked everything I'll try it out next time I use it.
