Television issue!

Dear,

Today I took delivery of my R55 Clubman S, it has all the options excluding CD-changer and Sunroof.

When I tried using the built-in TV, I noticed the image quality was very bad. No issues with sound though. All settings where fine, done by the dealer. (country, Auto-store, etc)

Are there any R56/R55 owners on this board who recognize this issue?

Yours faithfully,

William Blake

Many of the people here are US owners. And we don't have the option for a stock tv tuner from the factory, as that is illegal here in the US

MINI2.com is a good place to look.

You might check with your dealership or with your local MINI club.

Using the NAV screen, some R53 owners have hooked up TV tuners and DVD players and it works ok but the image is not that high resolution. Better with a dedicated DVD screen and player to replace the stock headunit- not really an option with the current dash.
