Hello
I have had this problem from Day 1, it is incredibly annoying. Sometimes it will work for about 30 mins (from Leicester to Nottingham and back), other times it will crash as soon as the signal has been established.
I have totally ruled out weak signal causing the issue, as I have purchased a GPS cable which connects in to the gold port of the BT GPS Receiver I am using. To be honest it does not even boost the signal. But in trying to figure out this problem I resorted to trying this.
As you can imagine I have uninstalled and reinstalled the software and maps on several occasions and also used the simple GB Map (which is around 100Mb less in size than GB Plus - which has a million or so POI's).
The interesting thing is that my SPV-M2000 and BT GPS Receiver seems to work perfectly fine in my friend's Honda Civic. I have a Golf GTi Mk3 and is very intermittent at best, in reality its only worked ok on 3 or 4 occasions the rest of the time it is a bloody nightmare. I have another friend who says that TomTom Mobile 5 works great in his Dihatsu Jeep (spelt wrongly, but who cares) but in his Dad's Mercedes it produces the same problems.
Any ideas would be greatly welcomed?
