|
|
I've just got a TT One XL Europe version 675 map, I'm really happy with it, just one thing that is bugging me, of the area I have driven so far petrol stations are not on the road they should be, they are quite a bit to the side. Is this just a bug with the mapping or something that can be changed?
It's not a big deal just a bit annoying sometimes to see a petrol symbol quite a way from the road. |

Is this the built in Petrol POI?
Or the one that can be downloaded from this site? _________________ Richard

The built in Fuel POI leaves a lot to be desired. To my knowledge there are 2 locations near me that are 12 years out of date, and nearly 2 miles away from the nearest actual site.
The download from this site is certainly more accurate, and getting better as Users make corrections where there are any errors. _________________ Richard

v9 maps that Garmin still show a petrol Station near my inlaws as Bp when it's been Total for 6 years now. It also shows the same Petrol Station down a side street and one of our local ones on an estate half a mile from its actual location.
The ones here get updated by users so i'd go with them. |
