I'm currently working overseas and had my 2008 XKR shipped here to Europe.

Does anyone know how to change the radio region from U.S. to European?

On the U.S. setting I can't get even number FM stations e.g. I get 107.9 but can't get 107.8 like they use here in Europe.

Please advise.

 

You might take a look at the extended (secret) menu? Not sure if it can be changed there or not, but its worth a look. (goto the navigation screen, press and hold at the top center of the screen for 5-10 seconds. When a number pad shows up enter 660 .

I could be steering you in a completely wrong direction , and if so I apologize. It's the only possable place I can think of. I suspect others here will have more accurate info.

Thanks Vince, I'll try that...

even if it doesn't work at least I learned about the secret menu.

How cool is that! Great info

 

Vince I do appreciate the tip but there was nothing there for the radio region.

The search continues....

I hate not getting all the stations

 

what else is there on the "secret menu" ? I've never heard of it.
thanks

 

Just gonna have to go look.... Press buttons at your own risk!
Other data is displayed unde 661 and 662 as well.

Vince,
When you say the Nav screen for the extended menu do you mean the actual Nav (map) screen or the home screen? Going to play with this this evening.

from the home screen, select NAV
Press AGREE
On the Nav Screen Press and hold the top center of the scree (in the grey bar) for 5 seconds or so...
A number pad will display to enter pins on.

A WARNING, EXPLORE AT YOUR OWN RISK: If you are button happy there may be a way to brick your unit in this area... I can't guide, help or accept responsibility if that happens.
