Keenster you are not alone.
It is very strange.

Confused

If I select Kinloss as a city centre I also get no route found.
If I browse the map and find Kinloss city centre then navigate to I get no route found.
If I browse the map and select the B9011 at the end of Glebe road a route is planned.
If I select anywhere on Glebe road I get no route found.
If I use advance planning to select a start point on the B9011 and a desitination on Glebe road I get no route found.
If I select two points on Glebe road a route is found.

My conclusion is that there is a disconnect at the junction the B9011 and Glebe Road.

I'm using 910 V6.520 and the map is Western and Central Europe V650.1052

Cheers
Paul

It is a strange one, if you select bowse Map/ Find/ Address/ City Center, enter Kinloss and it finds it, but fails to route to it. Tap the grey/ Blue cursor icon and select Navigate there - it works out the route to the same place.
Lovely part of the country, just a shame its so far North - many a happy month spent there - Mike

yes totally true it finds a city centre there but wont navigate there unless using browse map function!
i was actually trying to show my work friend how good the tomtom was but when i asked him to give me a place to navigate to it said no!!
Sad

As an addition to the above.
If you try ‘Navigate to…’ Address, street and house number, then put in the following:
Kinloss, Central Ave, 1, and choose fastest route, do you find this works for you.
This is the way I choose to use navigation rather than the ‘City Centre’ method. This is on the TT1 original b the way.

I think I have found it :D

If you :
navigate to,
Street and house number,
City - Kinloss
Street - G

Then you will (I) see a car symbol with a cross through it, which I take to mean that cars are not allowed along that street for some reason.

It just so happens that when the centre of Kinloss was selected they picked a road that cars are not allowed along.

The lesson is when doing a demo do not pick kinloss. Wink

If you select what type of route you want (quickest, shortest, non-motorway etc) and choose bicycle a route is planned !!!!

So you can navigate there you just have to cycle Laughing

It would take me 41:41 hrs.

Tried this with 2 units.

TT1 V2 regional gets the no route found, but does show the location as pedestrian roads.

TT Rider using Navtec, finds the route, but does not show the roads as pedestrian.
