Ahead of this weekend's drive, a couple of members have asked me about following the set route on their vehicle's satnav.
This is done quite easily if you have Apple CarPlay installed. You connect the Iphone to the car's PCM - either by a USB/Lightning cable if you have PCM 3 or wirelessly if you have a later version.
The first thing to do is to send the route to your phone.

In Google maps, click on the blue "Send to phone" strip and you get the option to send either by text or email - either is fine.![. [FONT=verdana,geneva"] [FONT=verdana,geneva"]](/forum/styles/default/pcgb/space.gif)
When the message appears in your phone, click on the link and the route appears on your phone screen.![. [FONT=verdana,geneva"] [FONT=verdana,geneva"]](/forum/styles/default/pcgb/space.gif)

In the car, choose Apple Car Play from the RH scroll menu, then click on Google Maps![. [FONT=verdana,geneva"] [FONT=verdana,geneva"]](/forum/styles/default/pcgb/space.gif)

Your route should now appear on your PCM (only the small version I'm afraid - there's no provision for full screen in CarPlay).![. [FONT=verdana,geneva"] [FONT=verdana,geneva"]](/forum/styles/default/pcgb/space.gif)

Make sure the little speaker icon on LHS is not crossed and you should have verbal directions too. You can exit the route at any time by clicking on the green directions box, top RHS.![. [FONT=verdana,geneva"] [FONT=verdana,geneva"]](/forum/styles/default/pcgb/space.gif)

Due to the way Iphone handles digital data, extra stopovers are used along the route and each time one is reached, you get the message "You have reached your destination" and a blue box pops up offering the option to continue to the next point. Press on this to proceed.![. [FONT=verdana,geneva"] [FONT=verdana,geneva"]](/forum/styles/default/pcgb/space.gif)
![. [FONT=verdana,geneva"] [FONT=verdana,geneva"]](/forum/styles/default/pcgb/space.gif)
You also have the option to delete the last stopover, which is handy if you've missed one and need to resume en route to the next point.![. [FONT=verdana,geneva"] [FONT=verdana,geneva"]](/forum/styles/default/pcgb/space.gif)
