    Thank you for the quick response. Is there something about my radio then as others on here have got their codes when asking about GM radios? I can't get the code from Vauxhall as the dealership changed the unit when the I purchased the car from new and never updated the database!

    Are these £25 services available on line foolproof? I don't object to parting with the cash if they are reliable.
    These Philips codes are cannot calculated but have to be looked up on a database....and unfortunately your Serial Number is not in the available database ( which only goes up to approx year 2000 radios)

    Your Vauxhall Dealer should be able to look up the Serial Number on the factory database .
    The larger (professional) online services may also have access (or usually have a contact at a Vauxhall Dealership) and offer codes using the Serial Number ... but normally neither will NOT refund if it does not work so it could be an expensive gamble.
    The better option is to take it into a Radio Decoding Service where they will definitely get your radio working again , usually for a similar price (around £20/£25)
