Re: Radio problems...........

Don't know of a cure. You can switch it over to the voice recognising the speed camera's which is a pain in the area where I live because there are so many of them. Also, if I remember, something comes up in french language when the voice warning is activated.

Re: Radio problems...........

If you have the sat nav disc with speed camera pictures on, then it will quieten the radio every time you approach a camera. This happens if you don't have the function enabled. Hope this is of help.
