My ‘10 Civic ES takes a long time to load the next track when playing files from a USB stick (~10 seconds). I have tried all the disk format types (FAT, FAT32 etc), multiple USB sticks and with/without the files in sub folders. Does anyone else have this problem? It could be that all of my USB...

Hi All, Civic newbie here :-) - I've recently purchased a 2007 Honda Civic EX with Sat Nav/HFT and want to fit a Yatour Digital Music Changer for playing MP3's from a SD Card/USB Drive (link) that I purchased from Amazon. I've read some forum's that suggest that I'll need a "Y" splitter cable...

I have the Honda dealer bluetooth thing installed on my a-pillar see image I'm hoping to get the xcarlink MP3 unit and a Y-connector cable, but as I have not seen how the bluetooth is connected I thought I would just check if there is anything else I would need before my dash comes off? I...

Just got my ES GT Auto and encountered an oddity with MP3 files on a USB stick. I had a memory stick with some MP3s and I added some more. When I plugged the stick into the adapter cable the unit displayed "USB LOAD" but then only showed the original files - not the extra ones I added. I...

Hi all, I'm looking to get hold of a kit, or cable to connect my mp3 to the civic's soundsystem (as the radio has an aux in function, but no obvious jack). I had a look around the back of the console, and saw this socket (image attached). Can anyone tell me what this is for, and if it could...

Hi All, I've a problem with the USB playback on my 2010 CRV EX head unit. It's the Alpine one with the SatNav. Basically you can go to the album list and you get the album titles for the first 95 albums fine, but go to the next page and from 96 onwards you lose the text, just blank boxes. When...

Hi! Am a proud and (generally) happy 2-day owner of an Australian 09 FN2. I've looked in its thick tome of a manual about this but no info about it so I thought I'd draw on the wisdom of you lot here... BACKGROUND: Have a pile of MP3s in the root folder of a USB stick* connected to the sound...

gentlemen (and ladies), i recently bought the model v from xCarLink mainly for USB-MP3. i listen to podcasts a lot and my 2007/2008 civic could not do that without a CDR (which is nowhere near as green as i want to be) anyway, my experience: 1) the unit arrived with a different aux-in plug...

I know people don't really rate fm transmitters but are they any worse than listening to fm radio?

Hi Folks, I've got the EX with SatNav display and I've been trying to get the best track listing display I can. Here's the results .. I used Audiograbber, a commercial program which is now free :D I had a few hours (!) spare so I've written a 'back to basics' tutorial for ripping and...
