Touareg :: Satellite Radio Losing Station Presets
Happened for the second time in 5 days this morning. Radio starts up and says reinitializing and then comes back with all presets to 184. Don't like this happening!!
View 5 RepliesTouareg :: Changing Radio Station With Steering Wheel - Presets?
I was wondering if with vagcom you can change the scroll-wheel on the steering wheel to run through the 6 presets, rather than just going through all of the stations. The way it is, I find it useless but it would be great if it could go through my presets. Maybe I just missed it in the owners manual...but I don't think VW gives you a way to change it... Btw, it's an '04.5 V8 w/ nav - fully loaded.

First, the Touareg navigation radio has two AUX inputs, plus a telephone audio input. One AUX input is an AUDIO/VIDEO input. The other is an AUDIO only input. Below is a photo of two Dietz cables connected to the two different AUX inputs:
How to actually connect these cables and what parts are required would be too lengthy a post for this thread. So if you want to know these details, click on the link shown in my signature below.
Touareg :: 2008 - Radio Keeps Resetting
2008 T2. The dealer says it's because I have my Parrot grounded to the radio chasis. I say they are full of you know what as it's been doing it since day one long before I installed the Parrot. It's a PITA at least once or twice a week when it resets all my presets to channel 184.

This light started coming on only yesterday, right after I finished installing the elearnaid replacement Optima battery. It now happens every time I start the car, along with all the other lights that normally come on, and disappearing after a few seconds, like the other dash lights that are supposed to come on when you start the car.
I did have to replace my radio presets, the time on the clock, and once again remove the reverse beep, which I did with no difficulty, but this "MAINT REQD" light still comes on.
This light should not come on since I had the oil changed last month and until yesterday's 12v Optima replacement, the light indeed did not come on.
I tried a fix, which did not work:

Passat (B7) :: 2012 - RNS510 Losing Nav Satellite Reception
I have a 2012 Passat with RNS510 nav radio and it just started losing Sat Nav reception. I will Start it up and it will have say 5-7 satellites out 10 and slowly the number will drop to 0 and sometimes the nav will show me off road and in fields sometimes in another city. I was told it was the antenna.

I've had this 2013 Prius v (lowercase v for the Prius v wagon) for about 6 months. During that time on at least three or four occasions I've lost all my radio presets. They just disappear and are replaced with stations I don't use. It seems to happen in between car usages, not while driving, but I am not sure about that. I am not noticing any other problems. It's a HD radio. I did not continue Sirius after the introduction period.

I get really crappy reception. Sometimes it just doesn't work at all. I have Sirius on other cars and I was able to get reception on them. Sometimes if I'm stopped I just re-boot the car and sometimes I get signal so I don't think its all an antenna issue.

View 2 RepliesGolf/GTI VI :: Satellite Radio Sound Quality Is Bad
I've had my MK6 GTI for about 4 months now, and this is my first car with a satellite radio (RCD-510). I honestly don't know much about sat radios, or what to expect from them. I have the Dynaudio package. I run my head-unit with all the sliders in the middle right now.
I am not impressed with the sound quality of Sirius (or Ipod MEDIA-IN for that matter), to me Sirius sounds like low quality mp3 stream, less than say 128kbps. It sounds "muddy" and unclear, highs don't have definition and lack dynamic range. There is even some static between let's say hi-hat strikes or other crisp notes. Normal FM radio sounds better, and CD or good mp3 files on SD card even better. Sirius sounds so bad that it is practically worthless to me, comparable to AM reception.
Prius (2010-12) :: Location Of Satellite Radio?
My sat radio says No Signal. Sirius checked it out and said everything was fine on their end. I checked the antenna and it is OK. I am thinking there may be a problem where the antenna connects to the Satellite box but I don't know where they store it to check it. Under the seat?? Under the trunk?? Behind the dash??

I have a 2012 Prius hatchback. For the last 3 years the satellite works just fine however for some reason about a month ago it just stopped finding a signal? The FM and AM radio load just fine (even though the signal typically stinks) but when I go to a Sirius channel it just says "loading" and I never get a signal. I called Sirius they did all kinds of test signals over the air but could not find an issue. They told me I should go to the dealer..

I have a 2008 GS350 AWD with Mark Levinson sound. There is a satellite radio button but nothing happens when I push it. Do I need to locate the number and get it activated before it'll work?
View 4 RepliesLexus GS 2006-11 :: Satellite Radio Installation Process?
I have a 2009 GS350.
Its Satellite radio ready, meaning it has a SAT button and it has the shark fin antenna on the roof. When you push the SAT button nothing happens. I was told I need to get the unit installed. I am assuming all the wires are run through the car and its just a simple plug and play, but I'm thinking that would be too easy. Also where does the unit get installed? Where to even look to see if the wires are there.
Gen 3 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: Satellite Radio Fades In And Out
Every now and then, my satellite radio fades in and out. I cannot pin it on rain as it sometimes happens when it is clear. I can hear programming, but only 1 second samples, with fuzz for a second then again, 1 second of programming.

The MFD unit will change satellite radio bands and or stations after the car has been sitting in the sun for a while. I've had this problem since day one and the dealer could not figure out what the problem was. I finally put in a different head unit but the problem is still there.
View 2 RepliesGolf VI R :: How To Turn Off Satellite Radio And Other R Sound System
Just bought a new R with the premium sound system and can't figure out how to disable the lame satellite radio. I am fortunate that Seattle has great local radio stations but have had to listen to BS satellite radio or my IPhone. I tried to follow the useless manual instructions to no avail. How to shut it off and enable real radio stations?
Also I am wondering what upgrades people have done on their stereo systems? The system sounds OK but having worked in a car stereo shop in the past I am a bit picky. What brand the stock speakers are and what brand and size aftermarket can be installed without weilding a nibbler or jig saw? Does the stock radio have RCA or other low power outputs to run an external Amp?
Golf/GTI VI :: 2013 - Satellite And Radio Signals Go In And Out All The Time
I am back in a GTI, after totaling my MK4 a year ago, and I just got my new '13 Autobahn, and I have already noticed that the satellite and radio signals go in and out all the time.
Is this a common issue, or is there a fix for it?
