Hey mate, you may wanna read the FAQ section - read before posting. Written by Chris Rogers.

Your answer is there.

sorry to hear about your unit Cruzen..looks like you may have to fork out $$$ unplanned..i just hate when that happens.

[ogz007]

actually just with that.. how do you prevent this from happening? could it possibly be from the heat? or its just a "natural" for this unit?

BTW, End of day, you may need to repaired it or replace it. Member Si long Bao have a working BOSE unit for sale. I believe it will be easier for your to replace it.

It happen to me as well.

Park car in the LUG for 2 weeks for oversea trip

then first day back to work put the car in the office car park with 40 + degree temp.

around 6PM, when i start the car and trun on music........... the bosh unit make some noise ..5 sec later "CD ERROR FO" showed on the screen

so i guess it could be the "heat" issue.....

nope its age. the answer is in the FAQ I wrote.

F0 = guides,gears,loading trays - and that is only the start of it. best solution (though you lot bitch about spending $$) is to rip the lot out and go aftermarket. BOSE is NOT an issue. the 6CD mech is about $900 now and I'm still waiting on one ex japan for a customer (thats been 6 months!)

Now despite what you may think or have been told:

screen can be kept its NOT part of the radio

OEM panel CANNOT be reused unless you are doing a CAR PC or the like and are doing a lot of custom work. (you still need the A/C controller.)

Bose gear (amps and speakers) can be kept with a decent inteface (not the shit off ebay.) and it will work fine and have decent volume.

I do the panel sets for them and have part numbers for all colors of the dash. its as easy as asking me.

Chris, Do you have any pictures of any of the jobs that you have ripped out the Bose Head Unit and replaced it with an aftermarket one ?

[Chris Rogers]

yep! its on a separate server but I have done several with and with out bose. the only visual difference is your radio is in place of the orginal. send me an email and I'll flick a few shots your way.

[Cruzen]

Email sent

Can't wait to see some of your great work.

Also is it a waste of time me getting the Jap to English software if I am ripping out the Bose Head Unit and replacing it with an aftermarket one ?

Or will I still retain the Fuel Consumption info etc. on the factory screen ?

I am assuming I will lose this info if I swap to an aftermarket head unit but Aus Nav & TV should be included in aftermarket unit hence no need to muck around with the Jap TV Tuner.
