Faulty Bolero?

Featured Replies

Hi all users

I just bought 5year old Superb and have 2 problems with Bolero radio.

1. For some reason the Bolero radio switches itself on.

Soon after I remove key from ignition barrel the radio turns off as it should but about a minute afterwards the radio switches itself on. When I turn it off manually it happens again, the radio switches on in about a minute (it is always the same interval so I suppose it is not some kind of short circuit).

I read loads of treads about it. It seems loads of people have similar issues but none of their suggestions help. No SD card in the reader, I tried with and without CDs, disactivating AUX in, checked throughout settings and there seem to be no option to stop it.

I am going to remove the unit this weekend to see if there is obvious problem with the cables...

2. The radio seems working fine apart from the above problem.

Another issue is that I cannot pair my HTC One M8 phone with it.

I found Bluetooth module underneath drivers seat (5N0 035 730 D). I checked and the cables looks fine, all connected. When I disconnect cables the Phone button works as MUTE only, when I connect cables back the Phone button gets me to sub-menu but there is nothing there to connect new phone. Only SOS can be used (don't want to try it). When I try to pair the radio from my phone it does not see any Bluetooth device available to pair, like there was nothing in the car although the device underneath my seat seems working if the unit gets me to Phone sub-menu. I tied pairing with and without engine on.

Do I do something wrong that I can't pair/connect phone to the Bolero?

Can someone give some suggestions? I do everything as manual says with no luck.

Thank you all for help

Well in the last week my Bolero (2 years old) has switched itself on twice but only clearly when sunshine was hitting the screen. Once while I was driving and once early morning when the car had not yet been unlocked but it was in warm sunshine. Going to monitor it over the coming months as we get warmer...hopefully.

Hi

Anyone has got suggestions regarding self turning on stereo?

It always switches on 66 seconds after turning off, isn't strange?

Once it turns on it goes to media and shows 'no media' message as there is nothing to play.

I tried leaving CDs in, SD card in the reader. The stereo plays then music from media...

What could causing such malfunction?

The radio can drain battery over night so I need to keep removing fuse...

I am going to get the unit out this weekend so any suggestions much appreciated.

Thanks
