I'd like to thank you all for taking the time to post and offer tips and tricks. I have now sorted the problem. I took all the tracks I had on the 32gb kingston card and put them on a crappy 8gb 7day shop sd card and have never had a problem since. I'm sorry to have doubted that it could be a problem with the top quality card, but clearly it was. -

Holding setup for any length of time seems to be doing nothing. Is there any other way to get the firmware version? -

I found a 7 day shop 32card I'll copy the same files to it and try that. Thanks again to you all for helping. -

Thanks everyone I have one or two slower. Smaller cards so I'll try another. Re the firmware version I've no idea, is there a quick check I can do? -

I've tried it all. I only use Kingston class 10 32gb cards and I've tried all the formatting and file structure tips. The bit that confuses me is that it will work fine and read the tracks really quickly and then just kick up the error next time I turn it on. I listened for 3 hours straight on Saturday morning and again on Saturday evening but on Sunday the same card just won't play. -
I've read all the help on getting music working on the sd card and have managed to follow and achieve the desired results except that it will take 20 or so insertions and the sd card being repeatedly cleaned or simply put in a pc to get it working again. I can listen to my tunes on the way to work and the card error comes up when it's time to come home. I can take the card indoors pop it in the PC go back to the car and it works straight away. As long as I don't turn the car off for long it normally continues to work, but a long period with it off will result in the error. This means I know the files are the right type and size as they do play, but why the constant errors? Oh and I do use a cleaner card for the slot in the Bolero from time to time to avoid muck being the problem. Any help or suggestions are welcome.

I'd prefer to sell them as a job lot to be honest. Cheers Ady

Rims are undamaged but faces where diamond cut are delaminating on 2 and ok on other 2. Not tyres just wheels. £200 Can post for an extra £40 I'll have to supply pics by email as they're too big to add to the ad.

No bad smells at all. The first time this happened there was no warning whatsoever and we were very lucky it didn't end badly. I think this Scout may be jinxed, I've only had it since last may done 9k and it's have a new egr cooler, keeps blowing headlight bulbs, brake failure, constants slow punctures thanks to the proteus alloys, I'm pretty sure the DMF is failing and there's something odd with the clutch. I've had 2 previous octavias one with 3 times the mileage of this one that only went as it was written off in an accident neither car gave me any trouble other than wear and tear.

Hi guys, I'm hoping someone else has knowledge of this. I've taken the car to garages who've confirmed the brakes are in perfect working order. When I use cruise control on longer motorway distances say 40 miles or more I get brake fade and the longer the journey the worse the fade is. In normal everyday use the brakes work well enough, but whenever I travel on motorways using cruise I lose braking power. The pedal is normal but response from the car is massively reduced to the point that I nearly failed to stop altogether when entering the services on a trip home from London which was the very first time this occurred. The pads, disks and fluid are all in perfect condition, ABS works as normal I can and have done emergency stops since this started and was successful. Has anyone had this before and identified the cause or able to make suggestions as to what could be behind this problem? Thanks in advance for your help. Ady
