Omega car kit fitting - dealer doing my head in! :-) by Clive Donaghue
My dealer is claiming that the roof aerial on my 2002 Omega Elite Saloon does NOT contain a GSM aerial - just the GPS and radio aerial. Everything I've read contradicts this - I think that the roof aerial "blob and stick" I have contains both the GPS and GSM aerials and that the radio aerial is in the back screen. Can anyone confirm this? Also, assuming I'm right, where does the GSM aerial...

Grundig SC303 intermittent fault by briank
My old Cavalier has a Grundig SC303 that has deveoped an intermittent fault on VHF. The VHF signal level drops gradually over a period of a few minutes to the point where no stations are received. AM stations and the cassette player all work fine. It usually happens after I've been driving for about half an hour suggesting a thermal problem or dry joint somewhere in the FM front-end or the IF...

where to run power wire in escort by Johan Wagener
I can't seem to find a place from inside the bonnet to inside the car where I can run my power cable through. I found a few other wires going through there but I can't get to the place where they come out in the bonnet. Any experiences with a escort?

Cheap ICE options for 1999 Laguna by Ebodski
Hi, I've just bought an ex-fleet Laguna RT dTI which has the audio display on the dash. Or rather it doesn't because the Philips CD 22DC481/62 head appears to be dead. The clips that hold the facia to the casing are both snapped, so the front just freely pulls off. I can probably glue it without making a pigs ear of it. There are two options I'd like to persue :-

Ford 2006 programming by Dave W
Just bought an old 1992 Ford Sierra Sapphire with, I think, a Ford 2006 RDS radio. I cannot figure out how to store stations to the presets and have no documentation for the radio. Normally I can figure such things out by trial and error but this one has me beat. Any helpful suggestions or links to relevant web sites appreciated. Dave

"Running-in" new subs by Mehmet Sanliol
I've just a bought an Infinity Kappa Perfect 12.1 sub and was told by the guy in the shop that I need to run-it-in. He told me not to push too many watts through it until it has had about 30 hours of play at moderate volumes because otherwise I can damage the voice coil. I am heeding his advice but does anyone know any more about bedding-in a subwoofer? Thanks

How to fit a New Head Unit? by DAB sounds worse than FM in Cars
I've never fitted one before so apologies for any dumb questions. I've got a Sony MDX C5970R MD tuner which I cannot get out yet because you need special Sony clips to remove it. But when I do remove it, how do I install my new Pioneer DEH P77MP mp3 CD tuner? Do you simply unplug the connector connected to the Sony MD player and plug in the Pioneer's connector, or are the wires different? If...

MP3 bit rates for in-car by H
I'm getting my new MP3 HU (Kenwood Z838W) this Christmas from SWMBO. As this unit is for use in a 1998 Land Rover Discovery TDi (not the quietest of machines), what bit rate would you guys use to compress the files? I normally use 192Kbps for use in my MP3 player I use on my bike, but I hear many people using 256 in cars. Also - not having used an in-car MP3 player before, how can I store...
