MK3 Radio - Is there a diagnostics menu?

As title really - on the mk2.5, holding 3 and 6 did some tests.  Is there anything similar for mk3? (Not speaker related, something more substantial ideally).  Can only find endless youtube videos of the dash dianostics mode which of course we're all well aware of.  Is there a more advanced menu than the nav/sound/clock settings screen?

 

thanks!

Hi

Press next track and eject and the same time until a menu pops up :-)

Dont touch the "Touch screen calibration menu or anything to do with the touch screen !!!"

Jamie, thanks so much - I'll try this shortly.  I'm after a TMC diag tool really - I know the older mondeos had such a thing, I'm hoping there is something/anything! that may help me.

You can use the touch screen calibration, you just have to tap the screen again to exit. Sharpens up the response, but as the saying goes 'Use at your own risk!'.

I'd checked the calibration menu out online, but like you said, it is a relief when the display comes back to normal.

The problem is you can't touch the screen if it's not a touch screen display :P  So does the diag menu work on pre-facelift too?

On the pre-facelift of you have nav, press the "NAV" button followed by "MENU". Not sure about the navless models though.
