Problems with the GPS connection in the Opel Ampera 2016 - experiences and solutions

No GPS connection

Hi guys, I have a problem with my Opel Ampera (built in 2016, gasoline engine). My GPS just won't connect anymore. I suspect it could be due to a faulty GPS antenna, but I'm not sure. Has anyone had similar experiences? How did you get it fixed at the garage and what was your experience? Any help is welcome!

Hi, I had a similar problem with my Opel Astra (built 2014, diesel). I would describe myself as someone with little car experience, so I went to my local garage. There it turned out that my GPS antenna was also defective. All in all, I had quite a positive experience there - they were efficient and explained the process well. The repair cost me 200.0 euros. Could you give me some more information about your vehicle, such as model and mileage? I'm sure that could be useful for further assistance. Hope this helps you!

Hey, thanks for the info! My Ampera has 59663 km on it. I had the car checked at the last service about 3 months ago and there were no problems then. I only recently noticed the problem with the GPS. Hm, I should probably visit a garage. Thanks for the advice!

Hello again! Yes, in my opinion, a visit to the garage would be the best solution. Your Ampera doesn't have very few kilometers on it, but that shouldn't be a problem for the GPS antenna. As I said, my experience with the GPS problem was positive and the problem could be solved right away with the defective antenna. The price could be in a similar range for your Ampera, but of course only the workshop can tell you the exact cost. Good luck and hope your GPS works again soon!

Great, thanks for the advice! It really helps to hear an opinion from someone who has already had situations like this. I will definitely visit a garage and have the aerial checked. I hope it won't be too costly, but it's hard to imagine life without GPS these days, so I guess it's a must. Thanks again and take care!
