Hi Trevor. Many thanks for your response regarding my radio question. Good news ! Everyone take note..... I called "Nis- spec" in Welshpool, they have been very helpful in the past, (John & Hillary) Hillary gave me the details and contact number for a gentleman in Shrewsbury who they send ALL of their Nissan radio's to for recoding as they specialize in breaking Nissan's so always have a lot of used parts including radio's. The gentleman trades under the following :- Les Evans & Son. His details are... Whitchurch Road, Shrewsbury. Contact number is 01743-450457. I rang Les this morning and he said if I wanted to drive over to him, he could sort it while I waited so that exactly what I did. It's a really pleasant drive from the Wirral to Shrewsbury along the A41 and A49, Les and his Son have a fantastic little setup with used radio's a plenty too, all recoded for most vehicles and going by some of the prices I was getting quoted he wasn't that expensive. If anyone else has any problem give Les a call, I'm sure he would also be happy to have you use the postman if he's too far from you. He can also supply you with a new radio, DAB radio, speakers, hands free kits and C.B radio's and he can also offer a fitting service ! He's a really nice guy too. All the very best to you all. Carl Mac.

Hi to all on the Forum. Just thought I would introduce myself, my name is Carl and I live on the Wirral. I have owned my T30 X Trail for just over 12 months, having owned a few other 4 wheel drive vehicles over the years I am on the whole quite impressed with it. The main reason for purchase was for a tow vehicle, which it performs very well at, we have a small 2 berth caravan with all the usual other bits and pieces to carry when using a caravan and it copes very well. However, my main interest is bikes, my Wife and myself both own Yamaha's and try to get out on then as often as possible. I don't actually know any other X Trail owners but I'm sure there will be several of you within the surrounding area. My very best wishes to you all. Carl Mac.

Hi to all. I have just bought a second hand radio / CD player from another 2006 X Trail owner as mine refused to eject CD's anymore. Having spoke to several car audio "Specialists " none of them seem to know if the replacement radio can be re-programed to work in my car, the Lady I bought it from had her's replaced with a DAB radio but cant find the radio code for the one I bought from her. After fitting it and switching on the screen reads "WAIT" for about 30 seconds then reads "SECURE" ...... After that I cant do anything with it. One of the car audio "specialists" I spoke to has told me that the NATS system will NOT allow you to use a radio from another car ? Neither can the replacement radio be re-programed to work in my car ? I find this a bit unbelievable, surely there must be a way of making the radio work in my car ? Can anyone help in any way ? I live on the Wirral and can be contacted on 07745477800 Many thanks, Carl.
