Thank you, I did have the original GPS antenna connected after I did the update yesterday and drove about, but it did not work, I connected the aftermarket GPS late this afternoon which worked. I take your point about mounting it in the corner on the top of the dash, in fact that will be easier...

Thank you, If that is the latest version then I have successfully updated the unit. Interestingly parked up next to the bungalow with the GPS unit just hanging from the sunblind it it picking up 6 satellites, I intend to affix it to the top corner of the windscreen tommorrow, is this about right?

I tried an aftermarket GPS and it did not work, so splashed out £120 for a map update usb stick after giving my vin number I also received a code for the install, after 2.75 hours updating with the engine running it still had no GPS signal, so I purchased another GPS unit and fitted that, took...

does anyone know the awnser to this question, as I have had problems with my Freelander 2 satnav GPS, I updated the maps, it took 2- 3/4 hours with the engine running and did not cure the GPS problem, I have now fitted a replacemant after market GPS unit and it is working, but I also wish to...

I have been in contact with Ross, (satnavuprades) and purchased a map/software update, as the general cocencious is that an update will probably cure the problem. I will find out in a few days and let you know

Looks like its the head unit faulty, I changed the GPS and made sure I was set to GBR antenna but it still had me in Brussels. I then went out and it is now showing GBR in fact close to where I live by one street but still no GPS although it knows I am moving, I will ring satnavupdates

Thank you again

Brilliant this is the unit I have as I said it was getting dark so I stopped looking until tomorrow, sorry to be a pain but providing I get it working, how do I update the hard drive type?

well I finally received the gps receiver today and took the front panel off which had the double din screen with it, but I could not see any GPS plug so I then removed the cd unit located under the display screen, with cables attached and again I could not identify the GPS plug, by this time it...

Thanks I will look at that tomorrow

Thank you How do I identify the C & D pillar trims?

I have removed the front sat unit today after watching a YouTube video ready to plug the cheapo GPS unit in tomorrow, but trying to remove the inside roof lining to get to the antenna connection was a bit too much of a struggle so I gave up on that.

I have found one on eBay for £12+ and ordered a male to female lead in case, all I need now is to find out how to remove the satnav unit to plug it in, or get to the connection to the antenna on the rear roof to plug into the end of the lead to see if it is the lead or antenna

Thank you unfortunately I cannot get the link to work, I am not sure what or how to do this as I have no idea where or how to access the sat module
