My wife collected her Terramar at the weekend and a couple of things I can't find details of in the manual.

Is there any easy way to do a postcode search in the Sat Nav. It seems you can enter a postcode instead of an address but it just summarises the town when it finds it and no option to navigate to a particular house number.

My wife is the main user and I drive it on occasion. I've set-up a second profile in the car and downloaded the App. The dealer advised only one person can have the App linked to the car. Does anyone have multiple users using the App on the same car?

On the postcode and house number it was a bit on a bain on mib2. If you want to use house number which is more accurate than postcode if the house number has been correctly assigned then to attack it with the house number, street and town rather than the postcode.

Postcode are a UK thing. They fit into the area code of the lookup table in these systems where the area is wider than postcodes.... so it's how the lookup table is populated. House number, street, town will be more accurate producing a POI on the address whilst the other goes of on a centroid for the postcode / town. Clear as mud.

Hadn't noticed that but what annoys me is if you do a search for alternate routes it shows them for a few seconds then picks one for you. Doesn't give you a chance to think about which one you want. So annoying.
