Hi guys,
Having trouble with my factory blaupunkt in my vy.
It has decided it no longer wants to read the discs.
Just wondering if anyone has had the same problem and if so, how much the fix the thing.
Cheers.
Wondering if it is diplaying an error message?
e.g. MECH error
If it is, only way to reset unit is at a dealer with Tech 2.
As Junior has pointed out if it is that error it requires tech 2 or in the case of my unit when I bought my car they forgot to enter the pin for it 2 work and only the dealer can do that.
It just comes up as read disc error.
treat yourself to a better sounding deck buy a new one in a name brand
youll go wow why did i wait
unfortunatly the factory deck is crap sound crap power output and muddy
update
Daron... the blaupunkt decks are quite a good deck - ive got both a single and 6 disk, the 6 disk bein in place now. they are infact heavily intergrated into the car itself, if you looked into detail of these units u too will find out. Juzvy as for the read errors could be just down to the lens being lil grotty maybe have a look into some lens cleaning disks, it may take a few attempts but it fixed that same problem i started to experiance when i had the orig single disk in
Thanks mate, as for the quality arguement i agree, the decks are pretty good for what i want.Originally Posted by cold_carve
I've also got an in car dvd that's blaupunkt and it's supreme in it's quality.
Anyhoo, lucky for me the car is still under warranty so i'll just get them to fix it i think!![]()
Agreed on Blaupunkt being decent quality, definately alot better than the old eurovox stuff that holden put out. As for intergrating a new HU, it is not much trouble to do as I have had one replaced with one of Alpines models from last year. The only downside being the loss of steering wheel controls which are not a huge problem to get an aftermarket kit installed anyway.
BTW. I have a factory 6 stack unit from my VY sitting in my cupboard. Can be tempted to lose it for a decent offer possibly........
sorry not meaning to step on toes here
but i remove many factory eurovox and bl/pun decks every day of the week (except sudays god gave me the day off hehe)
every customer agrees its a huge diference
i know some ppl will always love they stock factory decks like old men liking slow 253's heheh
yes they are ok and do what ya want and play cds but they are really crap sound quality and would love holdens to rethink their systems
please dont flame me im just saying they not that good (<---only child syndrome)
fanx all
Fully agree that the stock systems are below par, but some people are happy with what they have got and aren't or don't want to be bothered with upgrading.Originally Posted by daron.
Just a reminder that this thread is slowly going off topic and remember it was about the problem the OP had. I am sure if he wanted to change the HU then fixing it wouldn't be a priority.
True, and thanks for your pm, got a friend who's looking for one for her vz ute so i'll pass it on and get back to you.Originally Posted by vystorm_adel

hehe go the warrenty Juzvy! yeah i do say the standard single disk is pretty plain on quality... 6 disk being better with an equaliser set into it, factory speakers dont do any of the factory headunits justice bein eurovox or blaupunkt, but yeah lets see what phreddys rca's do to it... pplz on here seem more than pleased with em so i cant wait - see if i have spare cash to throw round this week phreddy!
all i can say is live them up cause looks of the VE's gona be another fish to fry with those "B"loody "A"wful ford style stezzas
Just wondering if you have had it fixed yet?????
Will require Tech 2 to reset the unit as previously mentioned.
Is going in today at 1pm, will let you know how it went as soon as i get the word!Originally Posted by Junior n54cc
Well car has been to local dealer and they say that it is an internal fault and that the unit is to be replaced with a new one.
All i can say is that i'm glad it happened under warranty!, they seem to think it's the laser but they're not sure.
