    hi sir teamjm,

    try to clean the glass and the suction cup with damp cloth

    Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water my friend.

      Also make sure that the suction makes positive contact on the surface of the glass. There shouldn't be any leaks... hairline cracks anywhere on the suction cup or uneven/rough glass or tint surface won't do.

      If the suction cup has been subjected to the hot sun for a length of time, it may cause the edges of the suction cup to curl and allow air to leak in.

          try placing a little water on the suction cup before pressing it to the glass. Works for me.

            suction cups' rubber get brittle over time, specially if exposed to the sun for long periods of time(eg. windshield mounting). i use my dashboard disc and install my suction cup there, at least there's no direct sunlight contact. another option to preserve the original suction cup/holder is to buy those cheap holders with suction cup.

                I just put some adhesive to my suction cup. Because i don't have any plan to remove it anymore. It is better to fix it better than risk of damaging the expensive GPS.

                      just want to warn you guys.

                      my gps keeps falling/ detaching from the windshield
                      just a while ago, i saw it detached again once i got to my car. Problem is it wouldnt charge na. I got alarmed by this so i opened the dock and the cable. the cable seems fine but sa dock, nagdetach na yung solder ng port connector and 4 pins were also separated na. Which means i have to buy another farking mount connector to get it to charge

                      youve been warned. Just keep the gps sa loob na lang. pucha mahal ng ganitong stupidity
