#10 of 12 BMW X3 Navigation System by SFLarry Dec 11, 2008 (9:28 pm)
Is there a way to turn off the audio? It's incredibly annoying. Thanks.

Replying to: jboyer202 (Mar 17, 2007 7:40 am) I have a 2007 X3 and I regret getting it. The Navigation Plays a large roll in it.   What's wrong with the Navigation? 1) Your control panel is a button directly on the opposing side of the volume knob. It can get confusing, as well as the fact it takes for ever to scroll to a number. 2) The actual GPS screen is a half of the entire screen. It is so little that it is hard to find anything on it. I know it is nice to see your coordinates, and altitude, but you can easily fit that on the bottom of the screen, rather than the entire half. 3) It only displays golf courses, not gas stations, emergency places, etc. 4) The woman who speaks sounds like the jailhouse foreman. She also is very wordy. 5) It is very expensive of an option ($1,800)   In other words, I would still view it as a poor navigation system 9 Years ago, and technology has really changed since.   If you want a good Navigation, take a look at Infiniti or Audi. They are great. Replies to this message: pp2009pp (Sep 17, 2009 3:31 pm)

I will take your nav problems and give you my ride problems.   I think car navs are always a problem because electronics change every few months while cars change every few years at best. I think the avg car is on the road in the US for 9 years, up from 7 since before the recession.   That is a long time to have an in-car nav system. Although they will not, I wish car manufacturers would just make places in the dash to install after market electronics....yeah, sure they will.
