Thanks mate, i will check more routes when i'm on the road.
I never had checked my routes before but i never ran into trouble either, yesterday a collegue warnt me for the 3,8m, so i decided to use my factory installed nav/radio and my phone with Nextgen, wich i always use.
They came up with different routes, and because i trusted my NextGen much more i followed NextGen and everything was fine, took a detour from 4km, but it's the only way for trucks, so i'm very pleased how it works.
In the Netherlands the maximun height is 4,00m and almost every tunnel is secured with a limit of 4,1m maximum.
If you do have other questions, just let me know, thanks for helping

@ Wojpen,
Have set Truck profile, lenght 17,30m height 4,35m, width 2,5m, weigtht allowed 60t, real weight 44t, see pictures below.
Spoiler: Sreenshots
As far as i can tell, the program doesn't have info from maps above the maximum height limit of 4m.
It think it calculates with info from everything less than 4m height and compares this with the truck profile settings, so when you have a bridge of 3,80m he will take another route, but when you have set the height to 4,35m, he doesn't calculated that anymore, just from the maximum height of 4m.
I know one thing for sure, i don't get any warnings when route is calculated, and i can't drive with 4,35m, we have a lot of normal road crossing/bridges and most of them are maximum 4,15m.
I looked at it with both map providers, tried alternative routes and when you have the route calculated and it shows on the sreen you have the option arrow ( right below ) and the restrictions button is grayed out ( looks like he can't see any restrictions ).
Made a screenshot of it, last picture.
