on a 525 e60 when i have selected an address and the car is travelling
to the address how do i quickly disengage to stop the guidance.. at
present i stop the car and when i restart i am prompted to either
continue guidance or not.   surely there has got to be an easier way
than this.

Yes! You go back to the navigation main screen. Turn the knob until the
address you put in at the start of the journey is highlighted. Press the
knob. Now a menu appears. In that menu, you can deselect the destination.

(This is valid if you have a car with the "professional" nav system)

On the other hand - READ THE BLOODY MANUAL

It's not that obvious in the manual. In fact, when it comes to
navigation, the manual is quite lousy.

On my E39, I just 'Delete the Destination' and no more prompts... Do you
have an option like this?  It only deletes the destination from the current
trip (not the history or address book).

Hope it helps...

Using the iDrive knob - push down and where it says "route directions" at the
top is there a tick (check) there if so then twist the knob until the text is
highlighted and push down on the iDrive knob to switch off the route direction.
