STX-550 head unit - Update.
The European web sites are saying that the unit is essentially crap - see
http://forum.qashqaiclub.co.uk/tomtom-software-for-connect_topic6454.html
After living with the GPS for 6 months I can confirm that the unit ( in my stx 500 at least) is rubbish.
The maps are years out of date
No speed camera data
It often says "No map data for this location" when I am driving through major cities - like Newcastle
Handling of roundabouts is ridiculous
Many street names are missing - I guess due to the old map data.
Nissan tell me that there is no update planned, so I have started the search for a replacement unit. Going to be difficult to find one which can handle all the dash buttons. In the mean time, I have dug out my old tom tom - at least it knows where to take me.
I would be interested to hear other STX owners opinions, experiences - apart from the GPS I am very happy with mine. If anyone has an idea on how I might be able to locate a suitable replacement, I would be eternally grateful.
cheers
