Shocked 2004 touch screen? are you sure? that's about a year too early for one of them......... Got a picture of said screen?


Yes, they were fitted from 2005 Model Year, model years always go into production the year before. So 2005MY's went into production in mid 2004, 2006MY's (which had the facelift) came out in mid to late 2005.

It's a bit like buying a magazine, you always get the October edition in September.

John,

My vehicle is a 54 Plate so i assumed it was a late 2004 model. Any way i have took the plunge and have bought the digital tuner (£350) and it has worked straight away i am well chuffed. The only thing now is how do i remove the old one?

Cheers Paul


I did the same on mine. Taking the old one out looks simple, but it'll take about an hour as you pretty much have to remove everything in that eletronics stack to get the bracket that hold the TV tuner out.

You'll also find if you can get an IID tool, you can change the TV tuner settings to Digital only, Hybrid or Analogue (which yours well already be set to). I found when i did mine, before i told the car it was a Hybrid module, it worked but didn't display the channel names properly. Changing to Hybrid makes all the freeview channel names show up properly. And changing the setting to digital only, makes it acquire the channels much more quickly (presumably it just ignores the analogue band, rather than sit there searching it for nothing)

If anyone thinks £350 is steep for a to module. I've just been looking into upgrading my mates Audi. Used Audi modules are around the £800 mark!
So really we're quite lucky! Laughing
