    Must be worlds most useless satnav

    Hi got a Peugeot 508 with built in satnav - totally useless as it doesn't take a full postcode only the first three digits and you can't find anyplace with that. Let's you put in a street name but loads of them are not mapped. Anyone got similar experience and hopefully fix as Peugeot not very helpful.

    I`ve got one in my vauvhall vectra as standard, mine`s also does not take post codes, but if i put in [ say edinburgh first ] i then start to put the street name in, and it will come up with a lot of street names within edinburgh that ive started to type in, and i just pick the the street i`m looking for out of the list, i then put in the street number and away i go, it has never ever not came up with the place i`m looking, so even though it does not use post codes, it still works spot-on every time !!!!

    Vectra's clearly better than the Peugeot. Interesting you mention Edinburgh I was there at the weekend and was looking for a shop at EH28 8 got as far as EH2 on my satnav and it does like the vetra gives me street options but like every other time unless its a common street and I know most of those no chance. Doesn't appear to be any software update that I can get that will fix.
