Good to know actually where your destination is.

The car does not know your destination, beyond the point of your destination (navigation is no longer active!). I though what people are saying above is the arrow show turns of the road, not crossings....

The arrow is part of the Nav system, at least in my car. If we are talking about the same thing, it is remnant after you have reached your destination. For me, the arrow is only there when nav is activated. But it remains as a remnant if I pass my destination. It happens to me all the time as my appointments from my phone sync with the car. If the address is not where I park my car, the arrow will continue to point to where that address is from a GPS standpoint.
For example, if I take my kids to soccer the actual address of the soccer fields which the car thinks is my final destination is the front entrance of the park, but the fields are way in the back. Since I don't stop at the front entrance and I have reached my destination and not technically turned off Nav, the arrow will keep pointing from a GPS standpoint to where that front entrance is as it tries to tell me I have missed by destination. Anyway, if we are talking about the same thing, that is the answer for my car. If I say cancel Nav, then it goes away. Or if I park and watch the kids practice, it is gone when I fire up the car the next time. |

That's exactly my theory and it makes way more sense than it showing you the next turn of the road 😉
It continues to point to your destination after it has been reached. Period.

It also changes according to the speed you are driving which would not be the case if it were pointing to your ultimate destination. |

Here's an example of what I just described. See how the road arrow is pointed right, following the turn while the next turn arrow shows a hard left?

Don't think I have ever seen the "road" arrow on mine. Will check next time I use a the navigation (which is not too often).
So in the example photo above, the navigation is active?

What is this arrow on HUD?
With Nav active that is how my HUD looks, although with the US speed limits, etc. OP has it with just the arrow, which I believe is a remnant of the nav after you have reached your destination. With Nav active yes it shows you a world of good stuff. I like it in big cities like Dallas and Houston where roads are every where and big highways cross cross; I find it really shows you the path and the correct lane to be in to get to your destination.

True, although I keep looking at the iDrive screen. I feel it gives me more unambiguous info. Generally find the HUD a "nice to have" feature, but can definitely live without it. Don't have a HUD on my Audi and never felt anything is missing.

Yes, nav active (FYI - pic not from my car but from a Google search). Went on a long drive last weekend and paid attention to the arrow. My HUD looks just like the pic and definitely previews the direction the road is going.

It also shows on mine after arriving to the destination. It might be the new thing on updated NBT EVO. I have seen this today after my wife arrived to house and i parked to the garage, i saw this arrow staying there, i thought i did code something and activated day before. But then i asked her , she confirmed that she set the Navi to house. It disappeared after ignition cycle. Must be pointing the location where it set for the navigation at the end of arrival.

I've never seen it stay behind after navigation has been turned off.

No HUD, but nav would still be directing to the last destination after turning it off. Once you know, just a few seconds to start it, then stop it again as the stop option won't be there after stopping it.
I think 3-4 times in 4 years in the 2017. |

Never saw it before on my 2019 430i until I just got my entire head unit replaced. Picked up the car today, tried out the navigation and low and behold it was there. After destination complete it stayed on - even getting out the the car and turning it off a couple times. No rhyme or reason as to when it would finally turn off. Figured out to just uncheck "navigation" on the instrument panel settings - granted that also eliminates the turns but who needs the turns on the instrument panel when you get them on your map during navigation? Now no worries about that huge arrow showing up again blocking other things I may want to see.

I had an issue with my HUD and NAvigation . when I had the GPS take me home and I would get off thise one particular exit - my ENTIRE dash lights would turn off for 5 seconds and come back on... If I didn't have the GPS on taking me home and getting off that exit - it doesn't do it lol.
They had to reprogram the computer - they didn't believe me hte first time so I recorded it and forced them to fix it udner warranty |
