It looks like I have the same problem with my 55 Golf Plus. Radio keeos going off and then coming back on. Any suggestions to rectify this problem?

is it the rcd 300 you guys have.

they are so cheap on ebay, just be sure you get one with a radio code. ask the seller if it comes with the code as you WILL need it to get it to work in your own car.

Yes it is the rcd 300, it seems at the moment as though the problem only happens when the engine is switched on, so far the problem hasn't happened when I just have the radio switched on.
