Today Louise (my satnav) was being very difficult.

I'd set to go to Fussen, just to see the lie of the route and pick up a town on the route that was within driving distance. She said there was a closed road and did I want to avoid it? Pretty stupid question I thought but I said Yes, avoid. When I selected a place within driving distance she didn't mention the closed road so I thought it was beyond that point.

But no, as I'm driving along I get a long-winded message to the effect there's an update, and a closed road and she's going to redo the route. No question. But the buttons were No, Info and Yes.

I pressed yes and she rejigged. But she kept doing that, maybe 7 or 8 times.

Firstly I don't think there should be a long-winded message, requiring input, when you're driving.

Secondly, I can't think of any situation where you wouldn't want to avoid a closed road. Why is there not a setting for 'always avoid closed roads', as they have for motorways?

Has anyone else experienced the same? Any solution?

It's a TT Camper 1005(?)

On my old TT720 there is a setting some where to automaticly accept diversions, I have it set to ask me first.

I'll have another look, but couldn't see anything

Hi

Can't think where you will find it but in Settings somewhere have you got an option that says Ask me so I can choose. Usually relates to If there is a faster route .

In Vehicle and route types there's an option 'Do you want to enable restriction and dead end warnings?'

I have Yes. If I change it to No, will it plan to avoid those restrictions? Or will I rock up at a closed road?

HI Jean

I think you need that to stay as Yes otherwise I think you will do. lot of Rocking Up.

Doug

I think I changed it to No before your post Doug but didn't seem to make any difference.

On my truck TT I have it set on yes so it will avoid any Width/Height restrictions which I have set but only advises me of a dead end if I have set a destination to one, usually a campsite, it will not take me to an actual dead end.

I don't remember having this problem before but it may be there's never been a closed road on my route before - unlikely, I'd have thought.

It seems bonkers to me - under what circumstances would you want to use a route that includes a closed road?

I had done the route in the evening - closed road. I then planned the route for the following day - no closed road. But lo and behold, in the middle of the journey it decided there WAS a problem (closed road I think but there's too much to read when driving) and took the original detour.
