Hi people,
I'm new to this forum as I only picked up my new Fiesta 4 days ago! Still got the new car smell :D

Having an issue with the connectivity of a USB memory stick as use for music. I currently have a 4GB Sandisk drive and when I plug it in it does not always pick it up properly, the screen will say unknown track and artist and fails to play anything. When it does work it has on occasion cut out half way through a track.

Just wondering if anyone has experienced a similar issue? Other than this can not complain at the car fantastic drive!

Hope someone can help! :wacko:

    I think someone else a while back had the same problem, and theirs turned out to be down to the car not liking the usb stick. Do you have another stick you can try with the same music files?

    The stick should be formatted to FAT32 and the files should be in MP3 format at 128kbps or better.

    The car does seem to have problems with some USB sticks. I changed mine to a different stick and that solved a similar problem I had. This is the one I use now and it's been 100% reliable: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Cruzer-Fit-Flash-Drive-SDCZ33-032G-B35/dp/B00812F7O8/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1428397223&sr=8-2&keywords=usb+stick+32+gb+mini
