 Many thanks

really. i know when thats on or off why would i need to be told haha.

ah well. i know now. i can answer that one if anyone else asks

The suspense is killing me

why

Why not just post the answer - so that the next person just has to search rather than hope you are on line ?

i did do a search on here first. the question has been asked before and no one had an answer for him so thats not a bad idea. no one mist have known then eh. i thought it meant auto something. i would never have thought of the radio cos if i cant hear it then i know its off why would i need telling. never mind now i know.

So what you are saying is you know what the message means but you don't know what's causing it to appear?

Time for a diagnostic tool, eg. GapiiD?  John

Ah - sorry - I misunderstood - so your radio was off.

I was confusing it with this thread which implied the radio was still on with the message being displayed :thumbs:

A/V = Audio / Video

no mate the radio was off when i turned the ignition on and the message popped up. thought it might have been a problem. never thought it meant me radio was turned off haha. strange thing to tell you dont you think.

Indeed - there are stranger though - just wait until your battery is on the way out - it will start telling you all sorts of weird things are wrong

well i know where to find you when it does

it's probably because you have your dash set to the screen where it displays the Radio station or CD track, instead of MPG, Clock, average speed etc. (change it by pushing the button on the end of the indicator stalk)

If it's set to that and you switch off the radio is displays A/V Off, because there's no longer a radio station etc to display.
