Hi
(Snip) Also it never seems to want to reroute on any specific journey, anything I'm doing wrong here ?

Re-routing.... Have you got 'Don't ask me' set in the Route planning menu ??? The device will auto Re-route without asking ....
Tap 4Dot (.... Menu) --> Setting --> Route planning
____________________________

The 1st Section of the Route planning Menu Screen applies when you have already planned a route, the route has been calculated and you are DRIVING the Route

On the Live Tomtom Devices 'When a faster route become available' the device will....
Option... (1) = 'Don't ask me' --> Always take the Fastest route
Option... (2) = 'Always ask me' --> Before taking the Fastest route
Option... (3) = 'Don't Ask me at all' -->Stick to the planned Route

Route planning screen... Section (1)

The 2nd Section of the Route planning Menu is the default Route planning type for ALL Route planning
Option... (1) = Fastest route
Option... (2) = Shortest route
Option... (3) = Most eco-friendly route
Etc... Etc...

Route planning screen... Section (2)
Route planning screen... Section (3)
Scroll screen for more Menu options....
The earlier Devices required me to enter my Route type every time, but at least 95% of my journeys I would choose the Fastest Route + Motorways

The earlier NAV2/3 devices are Menu focused
Asking all the questions and button pushing at the start... Then device planned the route

The Latest NAV4/5 (Wi-Fi) devices are Map Centric (Tomtom Speak)
The Route planning has the highest priority (95% of the time I want the Fastest Route... Job Done)
On the odd occasions I want something different, say I want to 'Avoid Motorways'...
After Planning and Calculating the route
I Tap the 4Dot (....) Menu --> Current Route --> Avoid Road Types... Choose Route Type required 'Like' (Avoid Motorways) the device recalculates the route avoiding Motorways

Scroll screen for more Menu options....


Note... In Image 3 above the Menus have changed ....
After the last NavKit update the Avoid Motorways option was moved to a new menu....

Now you... Plan & Calculate your Route -->
Tap 4Dot (....) Menu --> 'Current Route' --> 'Avoid Road Types' --> Select... 'Avoid Motorways'
I think the idea is now they have added Tunnels & Country Borders to the list, is to have all the 'Avoids' listed in one Menu....

To Always 'Avoid' Motorways etc....
Tap 4Dot (.... Menu) --> Setting --> Route Planning
Scroll all the way down to sub menu 'Route planning'
Turn off 'Motorways'

To Avoid' Motorways etc... On a Route by Route basis....
Plan & Calculate your Route....
Tap 4Dot (....) Menu --> 'Current Route' --> 'Avoid Road Types' --> Select... 'Avoid Motorways'
____________________________

To Change Route type....
After Planning and Calculating the route
Tap the 4Dot (....) Menu --> Current Route --> Change route Type....
Select the required route type....
