I am trying to report some newly planted speed cams and saved them as favourites in my TT 730. I was sure I normally get the grid reference on the side in 'manage favourites'. Somehow it just shows a number with M behind it (33.7M for instance).
I am probably doing something wrong, can anyone help?

As far as I know you only get the Grid Reference in the Browse Map window.

This is Enabled by tapping Options and Ticking Coordinates.

At a guess the 33.7M is the distance, from where the Unit thinks it's currently located, to the location.

Coordinates have never been on the manage Favourites screen.
The figure with an "M" is the distance as the crow-flies from your present position to the Favourite.

Coordinates display is enabled on the Browse map screen by tapping Options/Advanced/Coordinates.

You can then tap the map display anywhere to place the blue cursor andget the coordinates for that spot, or go "Find" / Favourite and it will place the cursor on that favourite and show the coords. for it.
