Evening CS,
I'm aware this is not a Twingo forum however it's as good as anywhere else - I can't seem to find a proper Twingo equivalent to CS!
Basically, I bought a 65 plate pre-reg Twingo Dynamique 4 weeks ago and it's been cracking. Brilliant little car, barring the audio system. The right speaker is quieter than the left, so I'm getting chronic ear ache driving it with music on unless I whack the balance to the right so it's vaguely even, and as and when it feels like it one (or both!) speakers cut out and either play both channels through one speaker or not at all. The only fix is to stop, turn the car off completely and back on again, which is getting annoying. Even more so that Renault can't replicate the fault themselves...
It's been in twice now with the same problem, once for half a day and once for a full day. I need the car for work so I'm getting a bit cheesed off losing money. They basically fobbed me off and said it's either the R&GO app (which by the way, is total shite and it's not because I've checked) or they have no idea. I asked what the next step was if it wasn't the speakers and I got "let's not jump ahead of ourselves, we don't know what it is yet..." :rage:
Any ideas how to proceed? My next thought is it's a faulty head unit but convincing Arnold Clark to replace it is going to be about as fun as pulling a cactus out my bum. Could it be anything else or is it likely to be a duff HU? I can't even replace it myself without it looking shite because it's got one of those daft single DIN ones but with separate radio controls like this:
But yeah... not impressed!
Ta.
