Default Neat feature I found in the NAV... Displays elevation:

I was at a stop light last night and while playing with the NAV menu i found an option to have the elevation on constantly while driving in the NAV mode on MMI. I forget exactly how/which menu used to activate it, but it should be very straight forward.


You'll see the elevation on the bottom left of the screen. I apologize for the bad quality photo, it's from my telephone and at night it's difficult to get a steady shot.

Fun if you live in the mountains.. I frequently visit family in Vermont so i'll be able to watch the numbers change a bit.

Default 10' i think. At one point driving next to the Charles River it said i was at Zero..

I think it goes in increments of 10' but accurate to the nearest 20' or so.. keep in mind i was going through tunnels and what-have-you so there was not exactly clear connections to the sats.

Need help Roswell. Just had Euro lights installed on my 2008 Cdn S5. The garage called and told me that since there's not a bulb socket under the orange deflector as in the original headlight, it is now throwing a bulb warning light. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks in advance for your help!
