Just bought a 14 month old D300 R-Dynamic SE and although I am enjoying the car generally the one thing that is really annoying me is the Navigation system.

It does not give accurate destinations when asking it to search for addresses. Our home address is on a single track lane about 18 miles out of Inverness and the system reverts to the centre of the Post code some 2 miles away by road. Putting in a address of a caravan park in the middle of Aberdeenshire again it reverts to the village of a similar name, a mile and a half away, not great when you have a caravan on the hook!

So three questions.

Is there away of "forcing" the system to the correct destination?

Once at the correct place is there a way of saving that position and naming it?

Is there a way of editing the name of destinations?

These are quite fundamental actions required of a top end navigation system. I was able to do all 3 actions on my Volvo XC90 which used the same navigation provider - "Here".
