Mobile phone car kit: Mondeo 9 Jun 2006 (Forum)
. The symptoms are that I can do it from the <> keys on the radio itself (Sony 6CD) but not the stalk SEEK buttons as its supposed to do according to the manual. Does anyone have experience of the factory fitted kit in a Mondeo? Thanks in anticipation. Robert -
Car Wars 16 Feb 2006 (Forum)
devices? 2. The unmarked Golf that they got into later - passenger PC has the radio on his shoulder but then uses an old telephone handpiece (like you used to see in Juliet Bravo) as well. Why would that be? Why, in all these programs, do the police never seem to have some sort of handsfree unit? -

Car Audio recommendation please 27 Jul 2005 (Forum)
The radio cassette in my wife's Mk1 Punto is rubbish, so I'd like to replace it with a CD Tuner. Nothing fancy and certainly nothing bling with flashing lights etc. that would appeal to the chav community. Have any backroomers bought one recently that they would recommend? Halfords have a number -
Ford ICE & Sat Nav theft 10 Mar 2005 (Forum)

Drink drive limits 26 Jul 2003 (Forum)
Once again on some radio phone-in Ive heard people argue for a reduction in alocohol-in-blood limits . It misses the point that most people caught for DUI are way over the current limit . So they haven't been trying to judge "How much is OK" but have acted without considering the law at all -
Seat ICE - upgrade? 1 May 2003 (Forum)
We have just bought a Seat Leon - a great value car in most respects, however, the factory fit 'Aura' radio/cassette isn't really to my liking. Has anyone out there done a ICE upgrade on a Seat Leon? In my previous car (A4) I changed the head unit from dealer supplied Sony to a Kenwood without -
Yaris CD Player / Audio 25 Apr 2003 (Forum)
Does anyone know if it is possible to either retrofit a CD player to a Yaris, or fit an after-market unit? While I normally just listen to the radio, it would be handy to have one and preferable over the tape. One thing I did wonder is whether it is possible to access the audio inputs to the main -

I cant connect to the bluetooth. I have a RCD 310 radio and Bluetooth is selected 'on'. In the MFD Menu there is no option for 'phone'. I have tried clicking the factory resets in the MFD menu. I've read about having to unpair the existing phone and people saying you need to connect -
