I have a Z2 which i recently updated to a Z3. When i am using my navigation sometime I will be on the guided route, but the icon tht represents my vehicle will be on the previous street, which i just turned off. I thought this lag was due to the HDD so i upgraded to a z3 and it still does it. I ordered a new GpS antenna, but it was not pioneer. So instead of having the huge after market antenna head on my dash, I had my friend slice the wire and use my original pioneer antenna head. Could this be problem?

What does your GPS screen tell you ? Are you receiving sufficient satelites with good signal strength ?

Its funny you asked me that.. Sometimes it full strength but last night when i checked the strength it was very low. i called pioneer he had me reset through the menu option but i still have the same issue

Splicing the antenna wire is never a good thing.

Did you check the old antenna? The wire might be cut slightly somewhere. That could be what was affecting it, and now you are getting a bad signal because of the splice.

Thanks in the process of ordering a new one! i appreciate the help
