Hey guys,
did I get that right, when using KLN 90B and MX170B and vintage avionics the RNAV (is fully functional) but can't be used with autopilot? Although the LOC-SRC rocker switch is set to RNAV (and the LOC ist showing correct RNAV data) the autopilot will not use the RNAV?

Yes correct I believe, the RNAV 511 can not be used to navigate with autopilot if you have a GPS ...
'NOTE: The autopilot in this aircraft is capable of receiving navigation input from the RNAV511,
but will only do so when the no-GPS avionics configuration is selected from the tablet interface.
When operating without a GPS, the navigation source selector button and integrated
annunciators will read “NAV/RNAV”, instead of “NAV/GPS”. '
