Golf V R32 :: Radio Skips Songs On Its Own


Feb 11, 2009

So this just started randomly about three days ago. I was listening to music through the ipod adapter and all of a sudden the song changed, then a few seconds later my song changed again. it continues to happen but is completely random. Sometimes songs will play all the way through and sometimes it skips.

Silverado :: Check Engine Light On / Sound Skips On The Radio

First of all, its 5.7L V8, it's been very well maintained, I've had my fair share of problems but nothing that has been that serious, except for the "check engine" light for the O2 sensor.

For about the last 4 months i've had the problem of the truck sometimes jerking while on the road. Once i started to speed up it seemed to not speed up which when it did, it jerked a bit. That was in the beginning.

AS OF NOW, the jerking has stopped but every now and then when i pull out of the garage and start to turn onto road it turns off, but all the status lights are left on. & when turn the key to turn it off and restart it starts again every time. Ive noticed that i was better off with the "check engine" light on then now because every time it is off it has these problems.

Also, when I barely start to tap the brake, again not all the time, sound skips on the radio. & this always happens when i tap on the brake & this happens more frequently when the "check engine" light is off.

Gen 3 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: Storing Favorite Songs On Satellite Radio?

Is there some way to store favorite songs? My stand alone radios would do that and I believe Ford satellite radios will do that. I can't figure out how to get this one to do it. I'm afraid it's an area where Toyota is much inferior to many others.

Golf VI R :: How To Retrieve Tagged Songs

I've tagged a bunch of songs from Sirius XM and now I want to see what they are. Does the factory cable support tagging? Is there some way to find out which songs are tagged (even just the names from within the stereo system) or have to buy a different cable to get this info?

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Engine Skips When Adjust The Steering Column

I picked up a golf mk4 with low miles on it and have been working out the bugs - so far I changed out the dreaded power steering rack starter crank position sensor - dam theses cars are tough to work on but I actually enjoy it and could not have been successful without vwvortexx guiding me through- got a ton of suspension parts waiting for me to put in but I have this problem that's dogging me - searched like crazy couldn't find anything ...

When I adjust the steering column the engine "skips" and when I push the wheel in and out (as opposed to up and down) I can actually get the engine to cut out completely. (I should also mention that according to dealership receipts the PRNDL switch has been replaced along with repairs of wiring harness)...

Golf/GTI VI :: 2012 - Audio System Display Malfunction - Can't Browse Songs By Artist / Album

Just got my new 2012 GTI with touchscreen radio, I think it's the RCD-510. I've noticed with my iPod plugged into the MDI, all of a sudden, i can't actually browse by artist or album. I was able to browse by artist a few days ago when I first got it (I know this because I was putting on some beastie boys in honor of MCD passing), but as of yesterday when I try to browse by artist or album, instead of getting the list of artists or albums to select, the radio just goes back to the screen that shows whatever song is currently playing.

For some reason, I'm able to browse by playlist and song, but to by artist or album. I've tried unplugging the iPod (it's an iPod touch) to no avail.

Passat (B6) :: Car Skips For A Split Second When Decelerating?

I drive about 25 miles to work each day usually at highway speeds (~75mph). At the end of my trip as I'm coasting down the exit ramp and starting to apply my brakes, at around 30mph my car 'skips' for a split second.

It's hard to describe...it feels almost as if I've hit a patch of icy road and the ABS kicks in for a split second, but it's a little more severe than the feel of the ABS system activating. I don't know if it's a rough transmission downshift or what...but very annoying and hopefully not a sign of worse things to come.

The car has about 14k miles on it. It's a 3.6L Passat Wagon.

Prius (Gen 4) :: Skips Braking On Rough Surfaces

I had a eureka moment the other day when braking over a rough surface and I think I've worked out why the Prius (and other hybrids) feels like it skips more than other cars when braking on a rough surface. It only occurs on light braking, i.e. when on regen, it's because the rear brakes are not engaged. A normal car would have all 4 wheels braking so if the fronts let go momentarily the rears hold the car steady.

Buick - Parkavenue :: 1995 Skips Going Uphill Or Under Load

I have a 1995 Park Avenue 3.8 with 278,000 miles. Runs fine until about 3rd gear and 55mph when if under any load at all the whole car jumps and shutters. If not under load, like going up-hill, no shutter or skip and runs smooth. If accelerator pressed at all, even when running smooth the shutter begins. Normally does not shutter at lower speeds.

Thought it was the transmission, so serviced the transmission. No improvement.

Took car to local transmission repair. They drove and do not think it is the transmission. They did check pressure at the throttle body, gas flow - let gas flow into clear container, no debris or water - and pressure was in the 52 range. Dropped some on acceleration while in park.

Shop did scan the computer, no codes. Check engine light is not on. Checked fuel filter and it was good.

They also checked all the spark plug wires and indications were that all were firing and in good order. They misted the wires with a spray bottle to see if they could detect electrical leaks - did not find any.

The car is not driven that often and was very low on gas. After leaving the transmission shop, bought gas and initially the car ran great with no hesitation or shutter even at 55mph. Shutter returned within about a mile. The car acts as if it has time to fill a container with gas it runs fine until the container looses some of the gas then it runs rough, or if you are driving along and try to take more than the normal flow out of the container the car runs rough - if they makes any sense.

Bought new gas filler cap just in case. No change.

The fuel filter and fuel pump were replaced at the same time about 2 years ago.

The EGR was replaced about 1 1/2 years ago. New plugs and wires about 1 1/2 years ago.

There is sometimes, but not all the time, a loud pitched whistle which seems to be coming from the area of the gas tank. Oddly enough if the car is in park and running while the whistle is happening, if the brake is pressed, the whistle changes in pitch to a louder and fuller whistle. When the brake is released, the whistle pitch drops in volume and more of a shrill whistle. Same happens moving transmission from P to R.

I feel I have a fuel problem, however, fuel flow, pressure, etc., seem to be ok. The mechanic drove the car with pressure gauge attached to the throttle body and didn't seem to feel that the gas was the problem upon returning from the drive.

Toyota - Tacoma :: 1995 - Engine Skips While Driving?

Have a 1995 Toyota Tacoma 4WD with around 230K miles. Recently, it has been 'skipping'. When we are driving or idling, it's like the engine sputters out and jerks along but it never stalls and always starts. Had it to dealer and another mechanic - plugged it in said it was catalytic converter and 02 sensor. We changed those, along with: plugs, wires, air filter, oil. That did not fix it. What this could be. Where else to start to look for this vehicle. It's been the greatest little truck.

Ford Excursion :: 7.3 Skips When Driving At Random Completely

My 7.3 skips when driving, completely random, but it did skip many times in a row when driving over a bridge, moisture seem to be the culprit somehow. I have replaced CPS, UVCH, Glow Plug, Glow plug relay. I have not replaced the harness from outside the valve cover to the CPU that controls them. Its a 200.000km truck (125.000) miles, that has been well kept and seen little towing in its life. How did you fix your 7.3 from skipping? When it was not a CPS?

Gen 3 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: 2012 - IPod Skips When Using USB Port

I have a 2012 Prius 4 and my USB-connected iPod skips. I've tried 2 different USB cables and 3 different iPods. I also tried the vehicle in different driving modes (ECO, Power, EV) and the iPod skips every time. However, the iPod works perfectly when using the aux jack.

I took the car to the dealer and they applied a software update but the skipping persists. The dealer tried the iPod in another 2012 Prius and it skipped. They admit there is a problem but the dealer says nothing can be done until Toyota technical support gets enough complaints that they come up with a fix.

Accent LC (2000-05) :: 2003 - Engine Stalls Randomly And Skips / CEL Came On

have had many problems with my 2003 Accent. I am not a mechanic, but I suspect the problems are related. My engine sometimes stalls when I sit at a red light. I drive about twenty miles to work. On a good day it will just sputter occasionally. On a bad day it will stall as many as three times. It also frequently "skips" a little while driving. It's like a split second hiccup in engine power.

I also used to have a really hard time filling the gas tank. It would take about fifteen minutes when close to empty. I have had it worked on three times over the past three weeks. First they replaced the timing belt (which I already knew needed to be replaced). Then they replaced something called a charcoal canister and blew out all the vapor vents(?) ( Again, I am not a mechanic). After that the car ran ok for about two days, and I can now fill the tank in about two minutes. But, it began stalling again, just as bad as before. So, they replaced something called a MAP sensor (MAFF?).

It has been a couple of days and the car hasn't stalled . . . yet. However, it still skips occasionally while driving, and my engine light has come on again. The mechanic says the code has something to do with a barometric pressure problem. what might be wrong with it?

Mercedes-benz :: 1982 240D Skips When Accelerating Especially Going Up Into 3rd And 4th Gear

My 1982 240D Mercedes Benz skips especially when accelerating. While it doesn't do it all the time, when it does it really loses power and comes almost to a crawl (at least 10 mph decrease in speed) and is quite annoying for me and probably for the drivers behind me, what's going on. My guess is that the fuel injectors are clogged as they have never been changed since the car's creation. When idling it does not skip; only when engaging and shifting through the gears (this is a manual transmission) especially when going up into third gear and fourth.

I have noticed that some albums/songs are not being detected by the Entune player that are on the USB drive. I verified that the albums/songs are on the drive. I noticed that it reads MP3 files fine but not MPEG-4 files. One would think the player will recognize the common file types.

Avalon 2005-12 :: How To Play Songs From A USB Drive

Can't find a way to use a USB drive to play songs through the stereo system on an '06 avalon yet.

my '12 kia optima has this option and I love it: I hardly listen to the radio any longer and it certainly beats having to shuffle around CDs every few days. I guess I could try using an FM transmitter that has a built-in USB slot.
