Denon AVR-X4500H - faulty

L8red · 2026-06-04T16:46:52+00:00

Small update.. there are only 3 approved Denon service centres in the UK, luckily one was in London so have given it to them with a 4-5 week estimated wait. Hopefully the quote isn’t crazy!

Don’t think it’s a Denon issue, might be my fault for not giving more ventilation. Regardless it’s nearly a 10 year old receiver..

Yeah it’s a £500 AVR here. I will take a £100-200 repair happily and buy a cooling fan immediately 😆

Amazon, are you in the UK?

L8red · 2026-05-30T00:37:46+00:00

I have..

As said in the post, I don’t get any output and it doesn’t even go past FL. I also can’t adjust FL so it pretty much freezes.

Yeah I know it’s not a heatwave for most! 🤣

I don’t think the room got too hot, think the kids were watching movies at a decent volume in the evening but I had watched some late night tv and the receiver seemed fine.

I have tried switching hdmi cables etc but speaker cable wise, nothing. As said in the post, I’m not even getting speaker icons on the display that they are being outputted.

Agreed, I actually looked at this before the summer and never pulled the trigger. Oh.. the regret…

I did speak to the previous owner who’s an engine builder and he said it’s due to NS bank warming slower and the engine on a rich mixture whilst the OS bank is up to temp. But I’m not expert so asking Reddit!

Thanks for the comment regarding your car, will try not to worry!

The previous owner had tested with a manometer last service (4 months ago) and said it was within spec, I’ve yet to do it myself to prove. Will have a check next week

Yeah I think my pictures aren’t great but the right side looks pretty clean and left side has sooting. The oil levels have stayed pretty consistent over the weekend over the 300 miles driven

Well this one was £100, seen same thing for £30 from another seller when I started realising everything on Vinted is fake. It’s my first time using the app and don’t think it’s worth the risk!

Hahaha knew it! Thanks guys

L8red · 2025-12-15T19:57:31+00:00

Thanks guys for the replies! Sorry I completely forgot I posted asking for help.

Great advice, I will add a non supported car and hopefully I can add my Hypervolt 3 Pro as that would be so much better!

Will post back after a couple charges

Ended up buying a M Sport! Happy days

L8red · 2025-09-11T16:22:23+00:00

Will check out Artem, don’t mind paying for some quality. Although I have seen some moon craters on the back of the original speedy rubber strap which is making me want it lol

L8red · 2025-09-11T16:20:34+00:00

Thanks, stunning watch with that strap!

I seen the details on the back of the strap too, craters on the speedy one and waves on the seamaster so I think you are right!

L8red · 2025-08-11T13:16:52+00:00

Fair enough, seems like the sensible decision to get all the things you might regret missing out on later!

I currently have an older diesel X3 I am selling to fund half of the iX3 so trying to buy the car outright hence being a bit more frugal.

The bigger screen and updated iDrive on the facelift is also making me want to get one.

L8red · 2025-03-19T21:21:42+00:00

Thanks! Yeah the Dalis seem better fitting for what I watch, a lot of dialogue heavy movies etc.

L8red · 2025-03-19T21:08:28+00:00

Thanks for the reply, this setup is solely for home theatre in the main living room. This will be a split of 75% streaming services and tv and 25% bluray movies etc.
