Nav problem

Nav turn notice is off by 50 to 75'.
Dealer said it is normal. We have a Nav in our Chrysler and it is dead on.
Anyone having the same problem were having?

Which version do you have? Apparently BMW just came out with V27.1, which is supposed to improve satellite acquisition. Perhaps that's the problem? My Nav has always been pretty good, but to be honest I can't say that I check it at the 50' accuracy level...

The Nav and my handheld Magellan always seem to be very close

We just got it in June I hope it's the V27.1 but I will check it out. We have a 2005 Chrysler and it it's a lot closer to the mark. Thanks
