Where does the GPS antenna actually live. If the trial replacement one solves the satellite loss problem, where do I have to permanantly position it?
Depends on the car. It's different for Touring, Sedan, Cabriolet, X3, X4....

OK, you have an X5

Antenna is on the top of the tailgate, under the mini-spoiler

But as long as the antenna has an unobstructed view of the sky, it'll be fine. Stick it next to the rear window as a temp location, it'll work.

I'm 30kms from Zürich
