• Mercedes Benz C-Class W203 (2000 - 2007) - 2005 - Radio removal 1 Jan 2008 (Forum)
  Firstly a Happy, healthy and prosperous New Year to all posters. I have a C Class Merc 2005 with an APS 50 radio GPS unit. I need to get at the back to unplug the CD player and plug in the hard wiring for my Ipod. Have tried the FM transmitters but where I live the stations are so close it is impossible to find enough space between stations to keep a clear signal for more than a few miles.
• Ford cd/radio problems 9 Dec 2006 (Forum)
  I have an 04 Focus Ghia, still under warranty. The problem I have is that since new, the cd/radio unit has been nothing but trouble, in and out of the repair shop 5 times. The latest episode was when the unit failed completely and the dealer promised a new replacement. Five weeks later I went to have the new unit fitted only to find out that it was the old one repaired.
• Sony XR-6459 car radio wiring 30 Jun 2006 (Forum)
  A friend gave me her old car radio (sony XR-6459) when she got a fancy new one with a cd player. I want to put it in my car, but am unsure of the wiring- I've got the speaker wires which are dark green/dark green black, white/white black, pink/pink black and grey/grey black (I may have got them a bit wrong- colour blind and struggling!!)
• Ford 5000 Radio - amnesia 17 Dec 2005 (Forum)
  My Ford 5000 Radio keeps getting amnesia and loosing its security code. I reinput the correct code and all is fine for a while, maybe an hour or so during a drive, then it requests the code again. Each time I repeat this process the up time gets shorter until it will not accept the code.
• Autoglass Radio Advert 6 Nov 2005 (Forum)
  In the advert it states (not word for word) that a windscreen is part of the cars structural strength and, if it is chipped or cracked, it could affect the airbag activation!!! How do they work this out? And how are they allowed to scaremonger like this on a radio advert?
• Ipod/Similar needed for car - advice plz 15 Apr 2005 (Forum)
  Being a demonstrator, we are not allowed to put anything aftermarket in them - i.e. handsfree kits, aftermarket radios etc.. so it puts me in a dilema A friend of mine has an IPOD with something called an ITRIP - which plugs into the IPOD. This thing then transmits a radio signal which can then be tuned in on your car's radio so you can listen to the music.

• Peugeot 306 r. wiper / radio electrical 25 Aug 2004 (Forum)

    I have rung a couple of places for battery prices and some tell me that I will need to set up a 'trickle charge' to the leads as I change the battery as it will mess with the ECU, radio and clock settings - the clock and the radio I am fine with the ECU ???, and others tell me that it is a simple "on and off" swap.
