    Can you set your destinations by using place coordinates rather than postcode or street name

    Hi Chris, just bought an Ocean from LVC, is it possible to delete all the previous owner’s destinations and satnav info (other than restoring factory settings that doesn’t appear to make any difference!)? Thanks for the great videos.

    I have a 2020 version of the infotainment software which has tiny differences but I like the newer nav colours for example, is this just a software update to get this version ?

    Great video. You mentioned the pro infotainment system, what's the difference? Also with most older systems have a SD card and the maps need to be updated after sometime, how does it work with this one?

    • @j4nch
      @j4nch 3 роки тому

      The pro has this bigger screen without physical buttons(I love it). I think there is also a difference of the subscription duration you get to We Connect Plus(I think it was 1 year -> 3 year). Also, the pro can display the map on the two screens at the same time, the media can only one screen at a time

    Thanks Chris. Is it possible to navigate by grid reference on the California sat nav? A lot of European campsites don’t have postcodes

    The sat nav doesn’t seem to give any options to choose type of route (eg Quickest; Shortest or Scenic) Is this correct? Very disappointed if it doesn’t, as my older VW car satnavs have always had this option!

    We just tried using the on board satnav in deepest Somerset, and it directed us ‘as the crow flies’ down tiny lanes / farm tracks, and not what I’d consider the quickest route. Is there a setting we missed so as to select route preferences?

    Good video Chris, not having much joy with the satnav, quick question when you are navigating on a long journey the nav gives 3 route options how do you choose the preferred route? I try tapping it on the screen and where I touch the screen on my preferred route it changes to desired end point?

    Question for a future show. What is the best option for the fridge when not using it but using the van day to day. Ie may go for a trip away using the fridge but then not use it for a couple of weeks : is it best to completely turn off. Will this create a mould/smell. Any good tips

    Is there ANY way to disable the nav from the digital cockpit? When I use the steering wheel controls to change it to something else, such as 'Range' , the navigation re-appears within 15 minutes. Very annoying.

      Yes. with Apple you don't even need the cable, with android you need to connect the phone with an usb-c --> usb-c cable.

    In the brochure when I ordered my Ocean it mentioned the Aux heater could be controlled via the ‘my connect’ app but now just says by radio remote, will this feature ever be turned on the work via the app?

    • @j4nch
      @j4nch 3 роки тому

      I had exactly the same complaint. I wish I could set the heater and fridge from the app, since they are all connected, should be easy. And when I baught my cali, the seller told me it was possible :'(, still didn't managed to control the Aux heater.

    The sat nav is my biggest dissapointement:
    - There are roads that makes 10 years they are blocked
    - They don't know a lot of address
    - There has been a lot of cases where I had to use the google maps instead because it was unable to drive me to my destination(was always trying to put me through roads it was forbidden to drive)
    - Limitations are often wrong
    - I didn't manage to send location from the VW app
    - You can't search by POI's name(like name-of-one-given-seller).
    - You can't go to one of your contact address(and I'm synching my adress book with the car for the phone...)
    I contact my dealership(I was pretty sure I was having an old version of the map), who told me that it was normal, that I could not expect to have up to date data.
    Even worse: You have no way to fix something(missing address, missing roads, invalid directions, invalid speed).
    It's a shame.
    And it's already one year that my dealership told me that android auto WIRELESS compatibility will come soon.
