Hi Maz12,


Thanks very much for that heads-up.


There appears to be a fix for audio not playing after powering on.  I think I have been muting and un-muting to get over this problem previously.

Hi John
I curious about what they mean about MP3 playing when connected to BMW audio,  does it mean we can now use the nav v as the music player when it's in the bike cradle.?

I think this is more likely related to use on the R1200GS when connected to BMW BT helmet systems. I have a radio on my bike and am happy with the USB stick method. I think that organising the controls with two music players,  one on the Satnav and the other on a USB stick or iPod would be interesting.

The Nav 5 works as an MP3 player - BUT only on non-audio equipped bikes.

I did the firmware update from 3.20 to 3.30, and yesterday I found that Trip A & B would increase 4 to 5 times the actual distance traveled...eg drive 1 km & they both showed 6 km.
I did a factory reset but still the same.
Will contact Garmin tomorrow, also sent an email issue with 3.30.
