Having paid for an upgrade from TT2 to TT3, I expect things to get better not worse. As we all know the address searching in TT3 is worse than it was in TT2, but now I find the map data is also worse. I regularly drive along the A419 west of Cirencester. At certain points along this road TT2 would lose its 'snap' to the road feature and would show me driving 300 metres to the north though the adjacent fields. It did this at exactly the same point every time I used this road, regardless of the number of satellites my GPS could find. Now with TT3 it 'snaps' to the wrong road at more or less the same point and starts giving me the wrong instructions.

Has anyone else noticed new problems with the maps that weren't there before?

When TT loses its snap is this a problem with the map data, or with how TT processes the GPS coords and the map data?

Loss of snap to road normally means that the map has the road in the wrong place.
