Something weird I noticed. I almost always set the navigator to display the various data fields (instead of a map view). The engine temperature displayed by the navigator is almost always higher than the engine temperature displayed on the instrument panel. The navigator temperature also updates faster (more regularly). I've seen differences of 4 degrees, but mostly they differ by about 2 degrees.

Other fields displyed on the navigator (odo, consumption, etc) are all spot-on.

Technical thought: I get the impression that the temperature value's filtering occurs inside the instrument cluster, after the point in the distribution stream where the navigator picks it up. Thus the navigator's filter (or lack thereof?) does not match the instrument cluster's.

Anyway, just throwing thoughts out there.
