Guy i went into jaycar and brought a $15 cassette tape that plugs into the tape deck and the other end into my iphone the guys says the music i have stored on my iphone will play thru the car speakers.

So i plug it in and press the tape into the deck and full volume sound very very fussy and faint music.

Any ideas ?

Almost.

Consider this your first and final warning.

There is absolutely no reason why you need to start 3 topics with exactly the same thing.

On top that there are countless audio threads already.

If you feel there's a valid reason why you did need to start 3 topics, please PM me and let me know.

yep spend more money and do it properly.

I dont want to spend 100's of dollars just to play music in the car when the tape should do the same thing for $15 . I would prefer burning the music onto cd and putting them into the car , i thought this option for $15 yeah il give it a try.

So nobody knows why the music isnt loud ? Could there be a problem with the tape deck i dont have any tapes to test it

Check you have the headphone jack plugged in properly.

If the head deck has an option for playing the other side of the tape, try that. Or flip the cassette over and put it back in.

Hi and thank you for your help. It does have an option fof playing side a and side b which i tried. I also made sure the aux end is all the way into the iphone and it is, i have no idea whats wrong im going back to the store tomorrow for some advice.

I would like to know how to check to see if the problem isnt my tape deck.

By full volume do you mean the volume on the deck? Have you tried turning the volume up to full on your iphone first?

But yeah, quality will always suck using this technology.

I had one of these tape adaptors back in the day for my first car (used my portable CD player) and the cassette part was designed so that you could run the cable out either end, which enabled you to flip the tape over. If you had the tape in the wrong way the heads wouldn't line up properly and you'd get the problem with the volume being too quite.

But I also remember having to take them back and trying a couple different brands before I found one that worked with my head deck.

In this case though, the V35 has a factory aux in, just need to get a bit of cable with a headphone jack on one end and wire the other end into the TV tuner in the boot.

Yes full volume on deck and full volume on iphone. I found out the problem is with my phone as i tried with another iphone and it works perfectly. I recommend this option for anyone who wants to spend $10-$15 to play music from your iphone / ipod to your car.

Yeah this one doesnt allow me to flip the tape . But for some reason My iphone wont work properly where everyone else does. So the problem is my iphone not the tape.

Thanks for all your advice.'

    • Yes to both! Yes to standard ECU and tune, but exhaust is aftermarket. Unsure on brand. Actually have it sitting in at my desk haha! I have to set it up on my laptop but this is a great next step, will do. So I generally try to shift before 4.5K RPM most times. I largely don't do a lot of high-rev driving, but I will take it up to red 1-2x a week max, as I know the occasional "Italian tune-up" is good for these cars.  Oh wow, is this way better than what I'm getting. Does this mean there's a good chance I have an issue?   Thanks for all the info so far guys.
    • Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?
    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
