MY2013 - DVD player problems. A favour.

Could I ask anyone who has a MY2013 car with the DVD player to just stick a DVD through and see what the video quality is like?

Mine has a very odd colours, with the lower half of the screen being very pink and there seems to be some interruption to the signal to the screen.

I just wanted to see whether this was common to all cars, or whether it was something that is wrong with mine in particular.

Many thanks

I don't have a MY13, nor do I have a DVD player in it but.... I'd say yours is faulty.

Une visite a la dealer, je pense! Sad

Presume you've tried more than one DVD in it?

Hi Paul,

Looks like you're getting assistance. In my MY13, i've tried a DVD and the picture is uniform and crystal clear - no issues. Sounds like your screen is on the fritz Toyota Rav4 2.0

Interestingly it's fine on older DVDs, but I have the odd problem with newer ones (Skyfall, Avengers) so perhaps there's a change in how they're produced?

Anyone want to try it with Skyfall? MY2013 SD4 Auto HSE in Santorini Black, Rear Spoiler, Privacy Glass, and Union Jack valve caps.

Silly but obvious question...... You are using genuine DVDs and not pirate copies or something that looks genuine from a boot sale?

Are all the new models capable of video playback now, or is it an extra/top the range feature?

I expect that is just the XS, Dynamic and HSE/HSE lux that can play DVDs. As S and GS models don't have the touchscreen.
