Has it just started doing this? Do you have option to look at the satellite signal strengths in your menus's

Has the car been moved 10's of miles with the system shutdown?

You can calibrate the Sat Nav in the settings menu. try that first.
If the car has been moved some distance without wheels turning
i.e. on back of a break down lorry, (I know- such an unusual event for a RRSPORT)
it can lose it's place and will need re calibrated via the menu. 2013 Discovery HSE Luxury - 3.0 SDV6 - Santorini Black

OK, that is why it is confused!!

It needs resetting, what does the manual say?

Some sat nav's find the correct position after a half hour or so.

you can try disconnevcting the + cable off the battery and touching the + CABLE to the body. Just make SURE that the battery is definately disconnected and you dont have an Aux battery installed as well.

This will drain all ECU's of power and when you re-start, it should sort itself oiut. Bodsys Brake Bible
