DBADBMW is an unknown quantity at this point
Red face

I noticed yesterday that each time that I map a route on the Navi on my 02' 745LI, it gives me directions with no freeway or interstates included. Even for a route that I mapped where the streets are far out of the way and the freeway is a straight shoot. It appears as if the settings think I slected bypass freeway, which was never done. Any suggestions on how to solve this?

it probably need a navigation software update. ask the dealer to tell you what version of software is in the nav module now and ask which one is the latest out at this time which is version 25

This is an option that is set to Avoid Freeways. Go to the instructions settings and change it back to shortest route and you'll get the freeway directions again.
