Radio/IPOD issues

Hi

When I am selecting songs/artists etc on my RCD510 stereo in my car it always says "please wait" and is very slow. Has anyone else seen this? Any idea's how to fix?

I had a new stereo put in because the original was stolen when it was broken into. That one worked fine.

Thanks
Craig

Re: Front tyres

The wear looks ok to me. I have had a search around on here and 15k is not abnormal it seems. Was expecting more, perhaps the person who had the car first had a more aggresive driving style than me!

Front tyres

I got my Scirocco, approved used with 9.5k on the clock. It has now done 15k and needs a new set of front tyres.

Im wondering if the tracking is not correct or the previous owner drove it like a t*t!

Would you say this is normal wear on Continental sport contacts?!!

Cheers.

Re: Scirocco broke in

I think so yes and I bloody hope so! But I have heard that factory fitted alarms are not very good! As I was walking back to the car the passenger side rear light was lit up, which made me think straight away someone had touched it.

Re: Scirocco broke in

It was on Gain Lane, outside Morrisons HQ where I work most of the time. Because I work for another company I am classed as a contractor so cannot park in the carpark! I am now parking in the store in Idle and getting a bus into the office. The guy who recovered the car from my home said what thieve...

Re: Scirocco broke in

God knows what they would want with it, it's only the RCD510, not a Nav one - I thought nicking stereos was a thing of the past. All I can think is they will have been back with a truck later on hoping I hadn't moved it, took hambrake off and wheeled it away! I've worked hard since uni and im now lu...
