Good luck
Thanks!
Okay, I'm a computer geek. I do know how to burn a CD whether its MP3 or Audio. But just WHAT am I NOT doing that I STILL get Error 5 and Error 6 instead of a playable disk in this car? Where can I find a definition of what Error 5 and Error 6 are?
Otherwise I LOVE this car. Bought it Dec 5 and have 35K on it today since I commute 106 miles.
Any suggestions? Is this just a car dealership trying to convince a female she's stupid?
Have you tried a different brand for blank discs, or a different burner/burning software? Not all brands of players will read every brand of recordable CDs successfully.
Lastly, does your burned disc play on a stand-alone CD player, boombox or DVD player without any problems or is there anyone else's car audio that you can test it on?
Good luck to you.
I'm using a CD-Rs. All the disks are finalized and burned in one setting (not multisessions). They play in my mp3 playing boom box, my clock radio, and in my husband's Kia with a Pioneer player. But all are older than this car. The variety of CDs is everything from cheap generic ones to top of the line brand names. About half are burned in Nero 6. The other half are burned in Linux based systems. (I'm not a fan of MicroGiant)
What the guy at the shop told me was that I was not putting them in proper format. When I read the manual, it doesn't list any specific format to use. It does talk about the depth of folder levels, using title labels, but nothing about burning formats. But it also doesn't define the error codes. It simply says to write them down and take them to the dealer. I did that. Numerous times. And I'm still listening to Audio CDs in this vehicle instead of MP3s.
I'm currently doing a job where I spend 5 days/nights a week away from home and 2 hours away my usual dealer. I think I'm going to bring this problem to the attention of the dealer in this town and see if I get a different reception (no pun intended).
What I'd like to know from anyone who does MP3s in their Aveo is what you are using to burn the CD's and if you're using any special "formatting", file and folder arrangement.
Thanks
Thanks for your input, everyone.
I've got the '06 aveo hatchback w/ the standard factory installed stereo. I'm looking to replace it with an HD Ready/Sirius Ready/Ipod Ready unit. I'm looking at the Kenwood KDC-X891 unit but wanted to know if any of you have any recommendations.
I can't say how the radio you are considering will work out, but if Crutchfield says it will work, you can believe them. I have used them several times, and they go "above and beyond" to service their customers.
Thanks
Good Luck
Does anyone know if they make adapters for steeringwheel controls to work with aftermarket stereos?
I just decided to settle with the stock radio, barring any issues it may develop later it it's life, and just learned to crank up the volume a bit.
I did, however add a bass tube to it, to resolve the lack of "low end." Funny though, I had to drop it down to like 1/4 gain to keep from overpowering the rest of the system. It has a pretty level and decent sound now..
