Does anyone know someone who can fix a stock bose headunit, it's giving me an error code and my car is no longer under warranty.Thanks

 

some guy on craigslist was offering that service, but it might be cheaper to just buy a used one since they go for only 100 bucks

 

Buy a used one....last one I got was from Kris I believe! The services for repairs usually require you to send your busted one in and wait a week or 2 until it gets back....and they are usually $200-$300 a pop!

 

I had the same problem and I think the dealer was going to try and charge me 175 when i went to get mine replaced under warranty. Since I had a carputer they said, it may be effecting the headunit and that they'll charge me instead replacing it under warranty. But it worked out and I got it replaced for free.

 

Deff better to find a used one,(e-bay), the factory charges us $150-250 to repair, and even the other companies; about the same, however if we can help, do not hesitate to call us or e-mail!

 

those damn stock units always get errors with cds. it sucks.

 

yea id just buy an ipod and integration kit instead of fixing it. thats what i did

 

i do extended service contract claims and deal with shops usually charging 350 exchange that come with 1 yr warranty. used one off someone else may come with 30 day warranty and about 100-200 bucks but if it goes out in 2 months, you're out that money. they go out so often, you might want to use that money towards a afmkt head unit and get a service protection plan.

 

is it possible to replace 04 Headunit to 06 so it can play MP3?

 

^^ no

 

it works but the temp control won't work

 

So did someone actually swap 06 head unit into 03+?
