Hi,

For any peugeot drivers with the Rt3 sat-nav system (the mono or colour
screen version), I have been dealing with Peugeot to ask why the TMC
system does not work in the UK, whilst it does work in the rest of
Europe.  The TMC is the Traffic Monitor Control system in-built within
the RT3 which detects signals of slow traffic, accidents and causes the
sat-nav to automatically reroute the car to the fastest route around
the problems.

As I say, it works in the rest of Europe, but just not in the UK
becuase PSA, the company that works with peugeot to produce the
sterio/sat-nav wont pay for a UK licence as they state that the UK is
not intrested in such a facility.

In a reply from peugeot, they say:

"Thank you for your email dated 4th August.

I have spoken to our Technical Department, and can confirm your sat-nav
system does not receive TMC signals. Nor is there any plan to change
this.
Your unit will receive local information, but not TMC.

Thank you for contacting us.

Yours sincerely,

Sarah Emms
Customer Care Manager (H04A)

I would be interested to hear other peugeot drivers thoughts on this.
