Hi all, just wondering if this has happened to anyone or if if anyone knows why it's happened. Hopefully my explanation won't be too long winded.
Ok so today I was driving to somewhere I don't know (about an hours drive) so used the SD nav to get me there and back. On the way there it had no problems and it took me along the same route google maps was telling me on my phone (wanted to compare). Was happy so far Anyway on the way back home (about 10 minutes into the journey) the entire MMI system crashed!!
All of a sudden the music turned off (was listening to music from my iPhone 6 through the MMI cable) and the screen went from the NAV map to a completely black screen.
None of the MMI controls responded once this happened. After about 4-5 minutes of complete un-responsiveness the screen came back to life and displayed the opening screen it normally does when you first turn the car on, but it stayed on this screen for about 5 minutes!
When it finally booted up the navigation was still navigating me but it wouldn't tell me a destination time or distance and the elevation/altitude was not giving a readout. The media started playing where it left off but the track title and artist, and the album artwork were for a different track! And when I skipped the track the information and artwork did not change, but the song did!
After a while the nav gave me the missing readouts (distance, arrival and altitude) but they were frozen and didn't change for the rest of the journey! The nav also would not let me cancel the route or even pick a new destination to nav to.
I decided to leave it as it was as I needed to get back to the office. Once I was at my destination I tried switching the car off and shutting down the MMI etc etc but nothing changed. I had things to do so left the car for about 2 hours, now it all seems fine after leaving it for them 2 hours!! Very strange!
