Watch 7 GPS inaccurate since UI 8 software update, it over estimates distance and Vo2 metric are now totally unreliable.

Did you try any troubleshooting. How do know it overestimates and by how much

I have been using the watch, for many months on regular routes, and since I updated the software on the 6 November the distances are recording as being longer, 500 m over 10 k, I can verify this as I also use a strava measurement and they both used to align properly. Also in the health app after every run successfully update my Vo2 max has dropped 0.1 per run, which is significant and irraccurate as my times have improved and heart rate the same.

You know it by uploading your activity to Strava and it decreasing your average pace and distance. When I recalculate my distance (redrawing it on a digital map) it says Strava was right. It used to be exactly the same until the software update. All apps are fully up to date and restarting the watch also doesn't make a difference.
