Hi Guys,

Had me E60 530D 2008 LCI a week now, couple of questions on the Professional Sat Nav.

My old E46 nav used to speek the street name etc when routing, my E60 doesnt, just "Turn next left" etc, my E46 used to sat "Turn next left on to 123 street" etc. is that right?

On prospective view, I dont see street names or area name, no icons only speed camera icons, is that right?


Cheers,

Isn't it awful? I wonder if the CIC has those features.

Well if your seeing speed cameras, then you have a pirated copy of the nav disc. Some people have good luck with them and some don't. Mine shows road names and if I remember right, will tell me the name of the street to turn on. I know for sure it will say the numbers of the highways. I listened to her for about 2 miles and have had her muted ever since.

Hi guys,

Apperntly the voice is built in to the IDrive, not the disc, but a guy has sent me a youtube video of his E60 that is saying "Turn on to M6 Soon" and "Turn left on to A666" etc. But mine rarely mentions the name, just "Turn left" etc. Mine is a December 2007 build E60 LCI 530D M Sport with professional navigation, any ideas? Software issue?
