It was working fine a few days ago, but now its getting confused about the location, it keeps thinking I'm on a different local road. Any sugestions?

Press and hold MAIN for 7s, then release. Then press Nav.

Now here's where I'm a bit vague - press either MAIN or NAV a number of times and it will flick through the 3 pages of diag info.  Will be on there somewhere.

Sorry, my car is 90m away, so can't confirm specifics

easier / cheaper / quicker to put a new aftermarket GPS aerial on it to try it out - usually only around £10 - £15 from ebay

Err, zero. None. Zilch.

Possibly worth checking the satnav connector at back of radio is in place and making good ontact (small coax connector)

Right thanks. I'll have a go at that. Anything else to check?
