+1 for the Grom, my HU 850 ate it's multichanger, 2 teeth missing from 1 gear at the base of the stacking part.
The grom solves the issue with no loss of sound quality. Or you could as you already mentioned swap over the multichanger from your old unit and wait for the inevitable. |

Well I've cracked it! It took me a couple of hours but was pretty straightforward, even with my sausage fingers. Stripped the innards out of the head unit to find 1 smashed cd and another intact cd in the mechanism, with bits of the actual mechanism rattling around in there for good measure. Long story short, transplanted my working mechanism into new housing and now have a working radio, cd player and parking sensors! I shouldn't reverse into anything now. Well, that's in theory...
Happy bunny.

I might have to give this a shot, if I can find my soldering kit. Nothing to lose IMO, if I fail/break it even more I have no stereo as when I bought the car but if I manage to successfully reflow the IC's then at least we can see how the HU850 sounds for a while. I understand it may not be a permanent fix but hopefully will buy some time to judge whether we want to replace it with an OE unit or go aftermarket.
I'll post back if it works out.

Seems reflowing the 3 surface mount chips between the tuner can and another shielded part of the board, and 2 resistors on the underside in the same area, has improved the problem no end. (my main board looks like the one in the first post on this thread, the one on swedespeed looks different?)
I believe that once I've got set up with a smaller iron more suited to SMD reworking I should be able to fix the issue fully, but for now I'm happy with the results. I would say this "no sound/intermittent popping" fault is caused by failed solder joints in this area of the board. Judging by the telltale sh!t stains in the vicinity I'd lay money that it's caused by thermal stresses over time. Long term, I think the only permanent cure would be some kind of ventilation or heatsinking in this area. Otherwise, it looks like occasionally reflowing cracked solder joints is a "routine maintenance" task to keep an HU850 working.
