If a radio navigation system from one vehicle is fitted into another, it is vital that the part number of the replacement unit is the same as that of the unit previously installed. Otherwise faults will occur with the navigation because the turn angle sensor setting in the radio navigation system will not be compatible with the vehicle.
If the radio navigation system is renewed or exchanged, adapt the tyre circumference to quickly improve the accuracy of the radio navigation system. Adapting components - navigation system
