Misbehaving radio
Every few weeks my radio/CD/phone stops working and I have to turn off the ignition to fix it. Last night, however, the same thing happened and nothing would fix it until I removed the fuse in the engine compartment for a few seconds. I thought I'd pass this on just in case you have the same problem sometime.

re: misbehaving radio
I had the same problem, with cd stopping every so often, and i checked the trunk and basically tightened the connections for the radio, cd player and things work fine now. I dont think any water has creeped down in the trunk area..

It can't be that simple (like something not tight)
My dealer is ordering other head unit and Amp for me the test.
BTW this is my second Head unit and Amp this car had replaced.
I love the car's looks and performance but the Factory stereo is real bad unlike my SC400.

After a carwash, my voice recognition function would just utter a short high pitched squeek instead of "talking." I took the car to MB because the phone always had buzzing noise in the background and whatever they did fixed the car wash problem too. The voice feature comes out of its own speaker under the glove box and I'm not sure if it runs though the amp in the trunk so I've no idea where the water leak would have been.
