Toyota Sat Nav routing

Yes! It has auto route adjustments. Just make a wrong turn and it will re-calculate. Marvin

 

Jill will keep nagging you until you get back on track. The rerouting is very fast, almost instantaneous. The factory nav system works well, but the user interface is a bit different than Garmin's and Tom-tom's. I like it just fine, but some people never adapt to it.

Yes, it does re-route if you make a wrong turn, or choose not to follow it's orginal guidance. But I have found it trys to get you back on the original (often poor) route for way too long, instead of recalculating a better route in the direction you are driving.
If you have ever used or owned a garmin unit, you will be sorely disappointed with fact. nav. Neat integration, poor operation.

 

I have a Nuvi200W, so it may not apply, but when I make a turn and "The Lady" gets stubborn and wants me to turn around, I hit "Detour" and she is happy and will re-route quickly.:car:

 

The most common command I get when I miss something is "Please make a legal U-Turn." This occurs even when a legal/illegal u-turn is not the best solution. As my signature suggests, I'm not a big fan of the Nav system, having used Garmin previously and loved it.

I've done a lot of testing in areas I know well and the routing is seldom perfect and often bad. I know to ignore it when it tries to send me into bad areas, but I worry about traveling in unfamiliar cities.

 

One thing I've taken to doing is setting my destination while sitting in my drive way, then suspending navigation. I know how to get from my house at least 95% of the way to my distination and don't need HER nagging at me over a route I know. When I get close (a few miles away) I resume navigation. The route is plotted from my current location fairly quickly and I get guided to the address I'm going to.

 

I'm having no problems with the NAV until the Lady starts in on me... "You never listen to what I tell you, do you?" "I said Make a legal left-turn"
"Are you listening to me... Helloooo?"
"See? Now we're lost, I told you so..!"

Sounds like you're talking about the Lady sitting next to you

 

The only time I had the "make a legal U-Turn" happen to me was when I was out in the boonies near Fallbrook. I found out later it was because part of the road was on a military base. I was allowed to be there, but the car didn't know it.
