Interesting. I do have a dashcam, and it's been there for ages. Could it really cause interference out of the blue? How would I test that?

Yes, those devices can suddenly start interfering, especially as they age. To properly test, I'd suggest a workshop. They have the right equipment to diagnose it.

Took it to the shop, and it was the GPS antenna, like I thought. New one fitted, cost around 200€. All working now. Thanks for the help!

I had a similar issue with my Opel Astra a while back. It turned out to be signal interference. Are you using any aftermarket dashcams or phone chargers? Those can sometimes mess with the GPS signal.
