GPS Location showing somewhere else...

Since the other day, my location on the navigation is showing somewhere else (not where I am currently). It sometimes also just shows the white background with the arrow. I'm guessing there is something wrong with the GPS signal.

I've seen a few posts online where others have reported the same issue but I can't find the fix...

Some have said the GPS antenna needs to be replaced. I'm not sure if this is under the shark fin or somewhere else. I always though the shark fin antenna was for the phone/telecommunication system.

Can anyone help shed some light on this please?

Car is a UK 2018 G30 540i xDrive

I did speak to someone on a G30 facebook group who said after 3 weeks his started to work again... don't think I can live without my nav for that long

Thanks in advance
