#4 of 9 Re: Lights, And Dashboard Illumination Question [bobr14] by dell46 Dec 15, 2008 (8:45 am)
Replying to: bobr14 (Dec 05, 2008 5:22 pm) I have a 2005 LaCrosse also and it operates the same. When it is dark the dash display works fine but in twilight hours it is impossible to see it. I blame it on poor engineering on Buicks part. They tell you to turn the intensity of the display up but that doesn't help. Apparently when Buick road tests these features they either do it in the dalight hours or in the middle of the night.You would think they could come up with some kind of a fix for the problem they made.
#5 of 9 2009 Buick Lacrosse radio settings by jhorn2 Mar 30, 2009 (6:06 am)
I need to know how to "save" the tone settings on my Buick radio. I change them but they never stay at the settings, I have chosen. The owners manual is vague, How do I "save" my settings so I don't have to keep changing them? Replies to this message: imidazol97 (Mar 30, 2009 10:05 am)

Replying to: jhorn2 (Mar 30, 2009 6:06 am) I'll tell what I learned for my RDS radio in my 03 leSabre Limited. You make your settings on a station and then hold the button for that station for 5 seconds or so. It will beep which indicates it has learned that setting to be applied to that station.   I hope this helps! it's a great radio with good speakers for my purposes. Some of the stations are flame-throwers nearby (700 WLW 50000 watts) and some are more distant and less powerful and need a different setting for the equalizer. Then music stations were different than the voice stations. The preset equalizer for talk and music, etc., weren't right for my listening with my ears.
#7 of 9 Upgraded Rado - How do you tell? by joeblack1 Apr 02, 2009 (2:48 pm)
Does anyone have an easy well to tell if a Lacrosse has the upgraded Bose sound system. I believe it also may be known as "Concert Sound." I am looking to buy a used Lacrosse and want the upgraded stereo without paying for a CXS if possible which has it standard. Thanks.

Replying to: joeblack1 (Apr 02, 2009 2:48 pm) The radio options will be on the trunk cover for the spare tire--it may be on the underside. It will be on a sticker looking like a 4x6 card with rows of letter groups.   Like UL9, e.g.   What those give are the RPO regular production Options. Search google. http://www.c2e.info/rpocodes/   here you can search alphabetically in groups. Use you browser to search for "Bose"   Also you can ask the parts department people what the code is for the option you're looking for. I Replies to this message: joeblack1 (Apr 03, 2009 8:22 am)

Replying to: imidazol97 (Apr 02, 2009 6:51 pm) Thank you very much! This is very helpful. What would be ideal would be a way to identify the upgraded radio by looking at pictures as I buy my cars on ebay. It looks like this model of car does not provide any clues in the regard. However, it sounds like I could ask the seller to check the codes for me as well.
