Default Standard Impreza stereo

Hi

just picked up my very forst Scoob yesterday and i have not stopped smiling and clocked up nearly 120 miles lol

Anyway with this being my first and it being an import i was wonering if you had any guides on working the stereo (CD & Mini Disc & fM Radio) i can work the CD (not tried mini disc) but its the Radio thats giving me grief

The frequency only seems to go from 70-90 (normal range being 89-107) now i can get Radio 1 but its on 86.2, does anyone have any suggestions other than buying a new stereo lol?

IIRC foreign sourced radios, (NOT the MD or CD bits), can be found NOT to work on our system. I'm pretty sure there was a post from someone recently who'd bought one from The USA, via e-Bay, and it was no good on UK frequencies.

Your best bet might be to take it to a good ICE installer, and ask them.....

Sorry.

Sounds like a Japanese radio. You can get a frequency expander to shift the reception to UK stations (http://spares.jicconline.co.uk/radio_band_expander.htm ) but if you can get R1 it sounds like it already has one and it is just displaying the wrong freq.

If it were me, I'd buy a new stereo!!!
