Is it just me or are some of the initial spoken directions getting further away with 5.1? I'm now getting things like 'in 600 yards take the roundabout 2nd exit' and 'in 800 yards....' - in 30mph areas!!! I'm pretty sure the warnings never used to be that far apart.

the directions are certainly earlier than in ttn3 - don't think 5 to 5.1 has made any difference.

On my daily commute I get "exit ahead" when coming off a roundaboput when it should say exit 1.2 miles ( 2nd left). - never had this in ttn3.

Didn't happen in TT4 either - it is a TT5 bug TT5.1 didn't fix.

I do like the more advanced warning for motorway exits. You used to get the first warning at about 1/2 mile 800 yds. Now you get a warning prior to this at about a mile.
