Hello,

I remember reading somewhere a while back that it was possible to expand the BMW Professional Navigation system so as to use full post codes (zip codes) instead of just the first part as per out of the box. At the time I thought "great - will make sure I include the necessary when I get round to burning my next nav DVD", however now such time has come I'd can't recall what needs to be done.

Any pointers please?

ps. I don't know why such functionality isn't included out-of-the-box, in this day and age is it not almost expected for sat nav to work from just a full post code?!

BMW Professional for Europe is fully functional with regard to postal codes as far as numbers are concerned. Postal codes consisting of numbers and letters cannot be entered.
