Hi on my trip computer / used to be just a radio and temp readout, the temp is always in the twentys even today when the car is covered in snow.
Is it at fault, or is it inside the car for some unknown reason, where should it be situated as to check it??
Thanks, Mark.

Re: Smell of burning rubber?
I had this on a previous car, ended up being one of the exhaust mounts not mounted correctly and touching the exhaust pipe, and causing burning rubber smell.

Re: Radio Display
So is it possible to get a button stalk and replace to get the features??steve_earwig wrote:Sounds like my D8, the button appears to be there but it's a dummy, if it's supposed to work it'll have an arrow or two on it.
Thanks, Mark.
