These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

10 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1Original post

I recently purchased a 2008 Porsche Boxster with the original radio. I also got a Bluetooth FM Transmitter that plugs into the cigarette lighter, so I can play Spotify on my phone through the car speakers. Unfortunately, I cannot figure out how to manually get to an empty station. I can scan and find next , but no knob to keep turning to find an empty station like, FM 88.7. Has anyone else had this issue and have any ideas how to fix it? Thank you for your help.

POST 2Original post

That one stumped me for a bit too. I have an '07 and the small manual button is hiding in the top right (see photo}. Press it and then use the right knob to change the stations manually. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

POST 3Original post

Wow. Thank you for the quick reply. Unfortunately, it goes to a couple stations and then to the presets. Do you know of an online manual for th 07 or 08?

POST 4Original post

I have a pdf of the regular owner's manual, but the instructions you need are in a separate manual for the stereo; I don't have that in digital form. Here are photos of two relavant pages of that. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

POST 5Original post

You are extremely helpful and kind. I hope someday I can return the favor. I waited 68 years for this car. Looking forward to driving it, with or without a good radio!

POST 6Original post

Nice car and welcome. Can you tell us about your cigarette lighter bluetooth?

POST 7Original post

Thanks for the question. I sent it back. I could not manually change to a blank station and could not change the frequency on the device. I have another that works fine - KM18.

POST 8Original post

Your article is great, I am having the same problem.

POST 9Original post

It took me a minute to figure it out as well, but what alfaporsche posted is correct.
