Nav Question

Hello

I have a question
I have a 04 X5 with Nav.
I just started to use it and have a question?
when I try to input a destination it will except the city name okay then when I highlight the Street,, and press the right knob , it does nothing?
it will not allow me to enter a street name. I don't even get the letters to enter a name on the screen?

Not sure if i am doing something wrong or is there a issues with my unit?
the area that i wanted to input is very old area and is on the map
Thank you for your help

Jim

If you put your nav in split mode (dual screen) and drive on that street, withouth navigating anywhere, do you get the street name in the right side of the screen ?
If not than your map is not detailed for that area, if yes then i dont hav a clue why you can not acces streat name for that area

I wonder if you have a bad map disk? What version do you have (there is a year printed on the disk)? And, is it the CD or the DVD map disk?
