Further information on decoding your BMW car radio.

Using our BMW stereo decoding system, you are not only saving money, but also time and the hassle which is involved. Most vehicle main dealers require you to book in your vehicle and take the car and proof of ownership along before they apply for the radio code.
Usually the code will be based on your vehicle registration or Chassis number which can mean you are not getting the code for the current unit fitted to the car, especially if the radio has been replaced at any stage in its lifetime.

There are a number of reasons why a radio code based on the vehicles chassis number or registration may not work, these include:


At Radio-Code, we provide stereo codes based on the unique serial number of the car radio, regardless of what it was fitted to originally.  Our stereo codes have proven to be more accurate than main dealer's because of this.



What our customers have to say...

Have Ford/Blaupunkt Radio, Ford dealer could not get code, not the right number on it they told me. About to throw the unit away. A google search lead me to your site.

1998 Mercedes S280, Merc don't have the code on their system. Got the Mercedes Benz radio out and got the SN and just typed it in. Your system said it was an Alpine so I went through the procedure got the code online.. BINGO..working, really pleased with the service.. Paul Owen


After about 4 months of pondering whether to pay the scandalous high street prices for re-coding, I stumbled on your website and I'm glad I did. You've saved me about £30!! Highly recommended. Cheers, . Steve Murray
