This week, after 2 years, and about 70k, my radio ,from time to time is asking for a "pass code ".

It does not have " nav ", it's just the standard radio you get with the highline model.

No mods have been done, no speaker changes, or boosters, it's all stock.

The only thing that "may" be connected,is that the car went in for its major service at 64k, within the last month.

Anybody--Anything ??

Thanks.

Ether someone disconnected or replaced the battery on your service, or you have a loose power wire somewhere.
Have you entered the code and it keeps asking, or is it just asking for the code and then shutting up w/o the code being entered?

to-day it was asking for the code,which of course I didn't have.I turned the car off,came inside ,phoned the dealer,got the code went back to the car,and everything worked normal.

It wasn't asking anymore.

It has happened 3-4 times in the last month,basically since the last service,never before, and not constantly now.

At least I have the code to try,if it happens again.
