Audi A4 car radio?

aster99

Hi guys,

I drive a 2001 Audi A4. Been thinking recently about the possibility of changing the radio in it.

Would anybody here have done someting similar or have any recommendations? Any advice would be appreciated.

I have no real preferences but maybe something that was compatible with a bloothtooth phone so that i could take and make calls through the car speakers...

I would need to get someone to do it for me...do the likes of Halfords provide such services?

I have the 2006 but the centre console is the exact same. You can remove the radio with the correct plastic pieces which, yes, halfords would have.

I had never considered changing mine at all althought with the correct fascia surround it is possible.

You must get a fascia because there will be a big gap between the top and bottom of the radio and the console itself.

I cannot help with the bluetooth radio you should get.

For Chorus Radio

If it was a big job i probably wouldn't bother, just would be handy for the handsfree calling etc.....

I cosidered changing audi concert for MP3 radio but when I looked on the net It looked like a hard messy job so I havn't bothered

If your current radio is a Concert or Chorus then a straight swap for another brand is NOT possible. There is an amplifier in the boot and because of this the replacement radio will only give you sound to the front speakers.
