I haven't heard others with this issue, but as I approach a waypoint, I get the normal CAS message on both my 550 and 540. After passing the waypoint, the message disappears on the 550 as it should but persists on the 540 indefinitely until I clear it. Often, the CAS countdowns to the waypoint differ on the units by a few seconds and after passing the waypoint, the remaining CAS on the 540 still shows X secs to the fix which appears to be the difference in secs from the 550 to the 540

It's interesting that there's a time difference between the units-- I would expect both of them to have identical times shown if they're both getting the same GPS position data, etc.
