Rhialto Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 Anyone noticed that the new HCx is wrong with the distance it shows before a turn? The 1st alert is ok, plenty of time to go but the final alert ring at about 100-80 meters and when I'm turning, it still show like 30 meters to go. Quote Link to comment

Rhialto Posted August 2, 2007 Author Share Posted August 2, 2007 9/10 here... I wish someone who own 2 different units will compare. Quote Link to comment

+scavok Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 (edited) I've noticed on my 60cs that on especially big streets the unit doesn't necessarily know the width of the street. If it is 3 lanes each direction, plus turn lanes and a median, the street is easily over 30 meters wide. Where the GPS draws the line as to where the street actually is may be on the far side of the intersection throwing turns off by what seems to be a significant amount.

Rhialto Posted August 2, 2007 Author Share Posted August 2, 2007 Was more thinking of a firmware issue... if a few confirm I will submit to Garmin and see what they have to say. Quote Link to comment
