Incorrect routing

Hi, I've just got back to the UK from Europe and during my trip the unit was fine but on the return both in Europe and UK it wanted to take me well out of my way. My unit gave an hour more for one leg of the journey and I really hate to think it wanted me to do in the UK. All trip it had been fine and other than suspect routes it was ok.

In France and Belgium last week my 595 got confused. I think that some of the mapping is incorrect, certainly when I looked at the problem areas, I could see that the 2109.20 maps didn't reflect the GPS trail, and the roads haven't changed recently. Have you connected to Garmin Express recently, I see that for my unit there is another 2109.20 download to update the maps :roll:

I'm in France every six weeks or so and haven't seen any issues with maps etc. I tend to do a master reset after every map or software update, perhaps you should try that.

Did you get the mapping problem sorted?

It's been discussed a few times in a few different threads. For me, I to switch both BaseCamp and the 595LM from the motorcycling activity to the driving or automobile one prior to A) connecting to my laptop and 2) making and transferring a route. Many but not all of my routing problems went away but for some unknown reason I have to keep doing it over and over. I am NOT a fan of doing a master reset as suggested above as I change a lot of parameters and I prefer to not keep doing all that over and over as well.

I was having problems after updating. The spoken voice had changed and was telling me to "Exit Left" when previously it would have told me to "keep in three right lanes". Then I noticed the screen was showing exit in say 15 miles.
I changed the voice back to I think "Serena" and it started to give me the right instructions again.
