GPS vs OBD
My GPS and OBD seem to suggest my troll is busy splitting into two and going in different directions... About a 45 deg difference of opinion here.. Can the OBD be calibrated or checked?

Re: GPS vs OBD
Methinks it's the compass in the GRX's roof console?
Could easily be jumping to conclusions though.

Re: GPS vs OBD
If it is the compass above the mirror, the owners manual tells you how to do the correct selection (11 or 12) for the compass setting.

Re: GPS vs OBD
If it is the compass above the mirror, the best thing to do is to ignore it completely .
