  1. - EDIT - Never mind, I found out to remeasure after putting my parking brake on. Go figure.
  2. @Nickho I ended up having my car audio guys move the antenna on the dashboard. It's immediately improved the situation and now I can usually get a lock in a few seconds versus 10-15 minutes. Go figure.
  3. @oli993, my car audio guys installed it, so I'm not 100% sure. What's odd is sitting outside of my house right now, with 5 GPS and 3 GLONASS sats in the green, it still had my location miles away from where I really was. I'll see about having my car audio guys move it and see if that helps. @Nickho I don't have anything hooked into my OBDII port. Do you? Do you know where your GPS is placed?
  4. I've got a brand new W8500 installed in my 2008 Toyota 4Runner. Overall, it's great, with one major exception. The GPS can take 10-15 minutes or more to track my location. I first noticed this when using Wireless CarPlay. My location would be wildly incorrect. At first, I thought there was an issue with my phone, but I then realized I was experiencing the issue with the built-in navigation. That confirms that when connected wirelessly, the phone uses the 8500's GPS instead of the built-in GPS chip. Which would be fine, if the 8500's GPS actually tracked my location quickly enough.
