Hi and sorry for another request for help... :oops:

Everything was working great so far with the Citroen C6 and the changed RT4 unit. Until today. The RT4 won't remember the date and time. Once the settings are saved and the motor is turned off, the data is lost (once the car and the RT4 starts again it shows a completely wrong date in 2000 and...

Navidrive RT4 8.31 update problem, no sound, Mirascripts

Greetings all, new member here,

My name is Mel, I live in Somerset and have a 2008 C5 (X7) Exclusive Tourer, 2.2 Hdi, 173BHP. I have been browsing the forum for some time and resolved various issues successfully so thanks to all the knowledgeable posters who have unknowingly assisted me....

Hello,
will this RT3 screen work with RT4 or even RT5?

Hi, maybe someone had similar problem as me and can help. I have citroen c5 x7 with RT4 system. The sound quality is poor and it seems that front speakers almost have no sound. If I put my ear to the front speaker I can hear It, but Its very quiet. I tried to play with sound settings, but it didn't help at all. Can I do something on my own to fix...

I have an odd problem on my RT4 unit (on the Citroen, but I don’t think it is model dependant).

With lockdown I have not used the satnav since December but now when I access the maps it says “No Satellites visible” the height reading also stays blank ( but I believe it is not an altimeter but takes heights from the mapping.) Oddly the map still...

My C5 X7 suddenly showed this error. It was working no problem the day before. Got in the car and now I see this.

What would have triggered it and how do I fix it?

Hi,

I’m fairly new to this so please be gentle ! I hope a picture or a link is attached which should show the screen problem I have got on the RT4 system on my 2008 C8 2.2 HDi 173.

The 1” band appeared first a year or so ago and comes up intermittently with no obvious cause. It has progressively got worse and is now permanently black.

Has...

Hi guys,

My satnav has developed a strange fault. It won't/can't pick up sataliites. As a result the map is useless and the car thinks its in a filed near Daventry!
The bottom of the screen usually lists number of satalites as 9 but is currenlty showing zero. I've tried a BSI reset and I've checked connections from aerial to loom above the head...

Hi. I have the same problem on my c5 tourer 2009. I have the phone symbol on the steering wheel but in the car menu I don't see the phone symbol to make the Bluetooth connection. what do i need to do?

Hi all, can anyone shed some light on my Bluetooth connectivity?
I have a 2008 x7 with navi and screen, on the screen there is a phone icon and it displays some call information so I assume a previous owner once had a phone connected to it but I cannot figure out how to delete previous connections or make a new connection.
I’m not really too...

Restarting there and the satnav was inoperable. Shows the following: 20220211_173250.jpg

And no response from any button.

Sound from the aux input still there.

It seemed to reboot and the red led cam on fire a few seconds. It seems to be working fine again but I'm getting worried that the HDD is...

It did the same on the way home, I should have...

My car is 2009 C5 X7 with RT4 navigation system. I now have an opportunity to buy a RT5 radio without the navi display (which I already have in my car).

Does it work ok with the old display? Is the display part number actually the same with both nav systems?

Thanks!

Couldnt find much info on the subject. I found a donor car with the forementioned rt5 unit. Im thinking of swaping my RNEG, cause im tired of listening to cds. Browsed the internet and in the french forum they say its a straight swap with some telecoding/bsi changes, can anyone confirm that?

Hello All,

I have recently bought a C4 Grand Picasso with the Navidrive unit. However, the aerial and base were smashed and the sat nav doesn't work as a result. It is a 2008 model, and I wanted to know what the part number would be. The vin is: VF7**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff].

Thanks!

Hello All,

I have recently bought a C4 Grand Picasso with the RT4 Navidrive unit. I was wondering how to add an Aux input and USB to this system. I understand there is an Aux lead that can be bought that plugs into the back of the system, however, it appears this port is already in use! But by what? It seems to be part of the main wiring loom for...

Hello everybody. As per title says I want to enable USB connection on my RT4 navigation system. The actual model of the navigation system is RT3eV-N3-Q1 which has an internal HDD and as far as I read about it is considered a RT4 (or did I got that wrong?)

Okay, so what I've done so far: removed the unit, improvised a connector from an old USB...

What upgrade options are available without extensive modifications (with or without replacing the screen)

Looking for the cable connecting the dvd/hard drive to the RT4 motherboard to repair a friend's unit. Are these sold separately? Would a laptop cable connecting only the disk work? Connection to motherboard looks similar.

Hello all!

Just picked up my Citroen C5 Exclusive last week. Brilliant car and super silky smooth suspension, love it.

The previous owner told me that the RT4 unit packed in and so it was replaced by a complete unit (screen and head unit) sourced by themselves. The only problem....the unit only has Polish language :roll:

Is there a way to get...

I’m looking for an RT5 unit for my newly acquired C6.

The RT5 in the C6 has a Sim Card slot and looks different from the RT5 in the C5 due to the layout of the buttons. Does anyone know if I’m searching for the wrong thing?

Other then the Peugeot logo on this picture below, the RT4 and 5 from the C6 both look the same....

Hello again,

After my recent family car write off and my Citroen C5 needing a lot of work I needed a car fast.

Hello.

Does anybody know of a definitive guide to the use of the Jukebox and radio on the C5 X7.
What I’m particularly after is guidance on how to erase albums and tracks that have been copied to the Hard drive in the media unit. Some information on how to organise the folders on MP3 cd's would also be helpful together with instructions on how to...

Hello all,
A bit of an awkward thing after I installed an RT5 from a 407 into my 2007 C5 replacing my RT4.
First I did the VIN coding with the lexia, and after it restarted it automatically switched to citroen themes etc. I did the rest of the telecoding pretty straight forward and it all seemed ok until I realized that no matter what suspension...

I've fitted a USB to my RT4, burnt all my music to media player then put it all onto a USB stick. Only issue is that some of the music wont play as its a wma file instead of MP3.

I have a Peugeot 407 Coupe 2.7 TDI with intermittent audio sound from my RT4. The Display, satnav etc work fine without any dimming or interruption and there is no problem with the RT4 head or connectors i can see on removal.
