anyone else having navi problems
well i just got my metallic tint about a month ago and my navi has been doing some weird shit.
the odd thing is that it only happens once in a while.
sometimes the navi is way off, I mean at least a mile from my current position and sometimes the arrow would be moving diaganol. i would restart the navi by shutting off the car and starting it again but my location is way off.
Like the other day i was driving in nice weather with nothing but straight road and highway with no high buildings around. The navi would indicate i am driving through a lake and through subdivisions like nothing. Its kind of cool becuase it looks like I am flying on the navi screen. Then after about driving for 15 mins i would pull over and wait about 10 minutes then it would correct itself?????
what i dont understand is this. If the problem is the metallic tint then why dosent it mess up all the time? or is my navi acutually messed up? or is the satellite messing up???
does anyone know where the antenna for the navi is located???

One other thing you could try is to pop the disk out and reset it...
If you do this, you need to update us on if it works. Mine is working fine except sometimes, I come up to the road I need to take and it shows that it is still .02 miles away. Always .02 miles?? I am figuring that this has to do with the satellite...
