#11 of 40 AM Reception on M06 MAxx with 6CD and XM by jrhess3 Jan 02, 2007 (5:48 pm)
I am getting terrible AM reception on my Maxx. FM is fine, XM comes in clear, but the AM has a lot of interference, sounds like a radio I had with a bad ground. Has anybody experienced poor AM reception on their Maxx. The Dealership said the problem seemed to be intermittent and they couldn't find any problem. They reprogrammed the XM, but that has nothing to do with the AM.
#12 of 40 CD STUCK in CD player!! by princessjess18 Jan 25, 2007 (1:44 pm)
Hi I own a 2004 Malibu Maxx and for some strange reason the CD's keep getting stuck in the CD player. I have gotten them out before and cleaned the cd player but now I have a CD in there and when I press the eject button it just makes a clicking noise and says either "No disc" or "Check Disc". Any ideas on whats going on and/or how to fix it?

Replying to: maddmaxx (Jan 14, 2006 8:47 pm) We're getting a bit afoul of sound systems here, but...   Oil brand and warranty coverage?   They have no business under Magnusson-Moss specifying any brand as long as the oil is SM and 5w30. The GM oil life monitor is calibrated for dino not synthetic oil. If you were running 20w50 racing oil or 10w40 in there and blew something out you've got another problem, but brands is brands: whether Pennzoil or SuperTech. Goodwrench oil is the same as Mobil 5000-- I think, although the formula may be slightly changed.   There was an underlying GM spec for pumpability that still occasionally shows up on SM bottles but the SM spec. itself includes this performance. There were SL oils that could fail to meet this spec.
#14 of 40 Codes on display by dragontat May 03, 2007 (2:13 pm)
My wife has a 2005 Malibu Maxx LT and after the first 6 months of owning the vehicle a code pops up "DAB". It has been to the dealer about 10 times now with 3 different radio's, and after disconnecting the aftermarket CD changer that the original dealer installed. The dealership supposed to have talked to GM everytime but they don't know what the code stands for. Any help would be apprecieiated. Replies to this message: pao (May 04, 2007 6:40 am)

Replying to: dragontat (May 03, 2007 2:13 pm) I have an 04 LT...page 3-66 of the owners manual..DAB is an XM radio error message..indicating a hardware failure...it indicates if it doesnt clear within a short period of time..there may be a problem with the receiver.....so I would assume they are referring to the XM receiver.....

Thanks for the info. I will have the dealership look into that. My wife just recieved a letter from XM about analog and digital recievers. Hopefully that will correct the problem. Appreciate the help and quick response with this.

#18 of 40 2005 Maxx and MP3? by lgarland Sep 15, 2007 (7:03 am)
I recently bought a 2005 Maxx LS. I have been struggling to determine the best way to implement MP3 player access into the vehicle. I have read that this model does not have the required aux inputs to accommodate adapters that could be put on the car. I have also had no luck coming up with aftermarket stereo systems/faceplates that would allow me to do this.   Can anyone help with more advice about this issue? The cost isn't really a factor. I just need to know which way to go, if there is one at all.   We already own one of the higher priced FM transmitters, and its performance leaves something to be desired. I have even contemplated, in the event that no other options are available, a disruption in the signal from the stereo to the exterior antenna. This would allow the FM transmitter to have a better and more consistent signal. However, this would have to be something that could be turned on and off, and I don't know enough about it to ponder if this would even be possible...   Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions!!! I listen to audiobooks constantly, and would love to be able to listen to them via the stereo.

Replying to: lgarland (Sep 15, 2007 7:03 am) if cost isnt a factor..replace the head unit...there is an adapter that allows you to maintain the DIC interface as well as the controls on the steering wheel... Replies to this message: lgarland (Sep 17, 2007 8:44 am) pao (Sep 18, 2007 3:50 am)

Replying to: pao (Sep 17, 2007 6:05 am) Pao... Would you be speaking of the Metra 99-3303? Here is the link to one site offering it: http://www.audiooutfitter.com/99-3303/metra/p167542.html   I want to be sure and get the correct one if possible. Thanks for your response!!!!
