• VW Passat B5.5 (Mark IV) - Medium Wave reception in VW Passat (B5.5) 9 Mar 2015 (Forum)
  I went to a reputable retailer and enquired about the problem. I thought I could just buy a booster for the standard VW Gamma radio which came with the car. I was told that the booster was integrated within the head unit of this radio so I would be just better buying a new head unit. This I have duly done. Excited with the prospect of getting the problem sorted I set about fitting the new Kenwood stereo along with extra fittings and a booster with gusto.

• Vauxhall Vivaro 2700 DTI SWB - Central Digital Display not working 23 Dec 2014 (Forum)
  Wonder if if you can help please? I've just bought a second-hand Vivaro. Tried to put the code in to unlock the radio (Battery had been disconnected by previous owner) but the central digital display (for clock/radio/outside temperature) is not working. Is there a seperate fuse for the digital display or could the problem be something else?

• Chrysler Grand Voyager 1999 - Electric Problems. 6 Aug 2013 (Forum)
  Hi, the electrics on the above have played up for sometime now. The interior lights, folding mirrors, central locking, radio, all do not work unless the ignition is on, with the exception of the radio which doesn't work at all. The other little quirky thing is, if i leave the headlights on and remove the keys, the lights don't go out and i can't unlock the door again.
• landrover freelander 2 - freelander 2 not starting 19 Mar 2013 (Forum)
  Our 60 reg freelander has drained its battery 3 times in the last 4 months. It is used regularly but not every day for a mixture of driving. We think the radio might be slow draining the battery as some times there are issues with the radio if you leave it on when turning off ignition. Have you any advice or seen this before. We are beginning to lose confidence in the car as my wife uses it with our baby.

• Ford Focus CD6000 Audio Output 8 Apr 2006 (Forum)
  CD6000 has an AUX facility for analouge input, but if the car does NOt come pre wired to use this , Ford tell me "it cant be retrofitted". It can only be a plug and 2 wires to get an external device wired into the radio. The 4 flat keys needed to remove the new style radio are also a bit of a barrier to going any further. Where can I obtain them ? Can anyone help ? Ford certainly cant!!
• VW Golf Cd Changer 2 Jun 2004 (Forum)

• VW audio buzzes 11 Nov 2003 (Forum)
  One for the audio guys: How can I get rid off the buzzing noise through the speakers whenever I play a CD? The car is a mkIV Golf TDI-PD with standard VW radio/cassette and single CD player (separate) mounted in the dash. Radio and cassette are OK, it's only the CD player. I can narrow it down to interference from the injectors, as it only happens when the throttle is pressed, or at idle - it goes away when I lift off.
• Daft reasons for rejecting a car 2 Feb 2009 (Forum)
  Ever been put off a car for a wholly illogical reason? I have. I took a test drive in a new Seat Ibiza which had the radio missing. The gaping hole in the dash and all those loose wires really put me off. If I bought one, it would have a nice radio, I kept telling myself, but the missing radio still nagged at me. More recently, I had a look at an X-type Jag.
