    Hi Osiris4isis, If you tell me exactly what program and ux and skin or no license, and so on you want to test, i'm happy to do that for you, no problem at all, only thing is i don't drive through europe anymore, only in the Netherlands and Belgium nowadays, but here in the Netherlands we have a lot of tunnels and low underpasses, all limited at 4m and most have the warning system set at 4,1m.

    Case 1 : I tryed that, and so did The Bookworm,. Program recalculates another route around the tunnel when i drove by the 1st exit, when i passed the second exit there was no possibility anymore to avoid the tunnel, and than he recalculates the route through the tunnel and gives you the big screen warning, so you do know you're in trouble, there's no turning back and no other route possible. with my version i didn't get the arrow signs like The Bookworm.

    Case 2 : I almost never take a detour because of a traffic message, but when i pops up you see the detour if you push the button and i do see another route, and i think it is recalculated with the parameters in the truck profile, so if you follow that route you should be safe. reason i don't follow the given detour route in traffic jam, is mostly you drive a lot of km to get round, and in my opinion you don't gain much time to drive around, better to stay on route and go through the traffic jam.

    Case 3 : off Route driving, gives no signs in my version, and no warnings when entering the tunnel, with planned route i've got the big warning when entering the tunnel, and yes i have the normal turn restriction zip, and there are no distances to follow, just when you drive by a road it shows up and tells No Right Turn for example.

    Just to be clear, i deleted this version with Pongo skin, and gonna test monday with a fresh instal of Gift without skin and licenses and with truck(world)ux

    Grtz. Ludo.

    @The Bookworm,

    I do agree it is not always 100% accurat, and i do think there are some things missing or incomplete in the FTR or Map files for the Netherlands, i don't think it has something to do with Nextgen of any version, i tried the same route with different ones and i get no other route planned or warnings.

    For the Scania radio they don't give any information, Ive got the Premium Scania Radio, it's is a Bosch 7 620 000 063 unit, i think it's Windows os, and i can't get in the menu for update anything, only thing you do can is buy a micro-sd card with map updates.
    It doesn't have a internet connection, it get TMC from radio signals, no cellular either, just a Radio/CD/ combi with USB, Bluetooth and touchscreen for navigation.
    Thing is, i don't wanna loose the radio, because i have a integrated telephone system, and full steering wheel control, if i change it for by example a Pioneer, than i loose most of the steering wheel control functions and telephone, they do sell a interface for it, but not all functions work, the microphone is integrated in my seat for example.

    If you can help me out, please let me know.

    Spoiler: Scania Premium Radio

    Hello All, i tested today the program iGO NextGen 9.18.27.687519 from Jan 26 2017 without a skin and only added the Truck(World) Ux zip.

    I only can tell right now, i don't see any differences in route calculation, warnings or others, it's all the same as descriped in my post 111.

    If you wan't to change or try something, just let me know, for now i leave the program the way it is, all original and do some more testing.

    Grtz. Ludo.
