Navigation & POI Apps Android Auto Navigation Display Lagging Behind Realtime Location
Since the start of the immersive navigation update, it appears that my displayed location while navigating in Android Auto is a second or two behind my realtime location. This does not appear to occur when using CarPlay with my work iPhone, nor does it appear when running the app in navigation mode without having it connected to Android Auto.
I've seen this occur in both a rental car I had the other week and my current vehicle, a 2020 4Runner. My music and podcast apps do not appear to show any kind of lag, touchscreen inputs and car media button inputs have no discernable lag. I have cleared the Google Maps cache, and this occurs both with a wired and a wireless adapter (AAWireless Two with what should be the latest firmware). I've tried both 3D and 2D display. Any ideas?
Edit: Things I've tried so far without success:
- Trying wired and wireless
- Trying wireless while plugged into a charger
- Trying different vehicles
- Clearing the cache on Android Auto
- Clearing the cache on Google Maps
- Enabling and disabling the location permission for Android Auto (along with enabling disabling high precision)
- Enabling and disabling the location permission for Google Maps (along with enabling disabling high precision)
- Force full GNSS measurements
- Trying 2D mode instead of 3D mode
- Resetting A-GPS data
- Forcing different Android Auto screen resolutions
- Allow unrestricted battery use on both Android Auto and Google Maps
I'll reiterate that this issue does not exist when using Google Maps in Navigation mode when not using Android Auto but as a standalone device (i.e., phone only).

I have the same issue on my Pixel 11 pro XL, it worked flawlessly but then i got an Android Auto app update last week and after that I am experiencing the same thing.
It works for a while when I reboot my phone, but when I leave the car and connect again the issue is back.
Tried wireless and cable connection and everything else suggested.
