Anyway I can check the booster part has been installed?Might have to talk with the service guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seventytwo Still have a turbo, it's just on a diesel.

The trick is to have the mp3 player a max volume and adjust by the stereo volume control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
