From this site you will see we are going back to France. About a month ago we went back for a holiday and set the Sat Nav and which is new and thus up to date.

It pushed us into Valencia and we were heading for Zaragoza Pamplona and then into Bayonne. After Bordeaux and then home.

In previous life I seem to remember the old sat nav skirted the outskirts of Valencia but headed towards the airport sign before exiting for Zaragoza.

This time it took us almost through the centre of the city.

Any suggestions please for this less than knowledgeable individual. But I am Welsh

thanks

Stick with a map. Have not used satnav and don't intend to!

Just follow the Barcelona sign until you are the other side of Valencia & then carry on using the satnav.
In settings you may find that you can select "favour highways/motorways" ?
