Default Problem with dashboard
I have a problem with the dashboard of my 992 C4S.
Sometimes, when I am driving the dashboard shift the image in the right side toward the navigation.
It happens when the car go up or down on a hill.
So I have always navigation on the right instrument.
I do NOT touch anything on the steering wheel.

Do you have a picture of what is happening, haven't seen/noticed this. Is the physical screen shifting, or the nav picture re-centering.

If you use the wheel on the steering wheel you can go through the various menus of the car. The navigator's screen continues to appear to me. Even if I turn off and turn on the car always appears the navigator and the curious thing is that if I'm in the main menu, coming down from the box chute and braking the menu back on the navigator... Maybe it's a coincidence.

You may be inadvertently hitting that scroll wheel. I found myself doing it a couple of times by accident when I first got the car.

I disable the Nav view from that screen (as I use Waze in apple car play). Not sure why yours is "Defaulting" to the nav screen. Maybe disable it in that screen via the PCM, then re-enable it once you start and stop the car. Mine always displays the one that is first in the display setting, maybe Nav is yours and that is causing it?

This worries me more than the dashboard hiccup.
