Audi Navigation...
Tried out the guidance system for the first time this weekend. Used it to pick up a date for the first time at her house. That was kind of 'neat' because when she asked me if I needed directions I could reply with the ever-so-confident "no." as I had the Guidance package on my new allroad Audi.
What's interesting is that when I entered her city, Plano, it asked me for the county too. There seems to be some errors on the #4 area disk that Audi uses for this navigation system as it claims that my former date's house is in Plano, Texas and in Denton County which is NOT correct. She actually lives smack dab in the middle of Collin County. When I entered Collin or Dallas County into the system her street would come up. It would only do so under the Denton County heading... My friend in Beverly Hills claims he's not had any problems with his Nav on his A8. Anyone else had a problem like this??

Re: Audi Navigation...
I have had a similar problem, but with a twist. I have needed to find a particular address, but was not certain whether it was in Houston, Klein, Humble, Tomball or what. It requires a bit of maneuvering to get the exact city. Otherwise, it's great.

Except when it tells you to make a U-turn on the freeway!
Or get into the left lane to turn right onto a freeway.
You really have to drive with your eyes open (duh)
I was having similar city problems with Palo Alto (San Mateo vs Santa Clara) at the weekend. I hadn't a clue which one the address I was looking for was in.
