FM Radio Problem

Costa · 07-01-2007, 03:29 AM

I am getting a lot of static while the radio is on the FM band. As you can see from the car specs below, I have Logic 7, I-drive etc and I also have the latest software.

Has anyone else had issues ?

It seems to have gotten worse since I got upgraded to 25.01.01 - before that I used to get static mainly on AM band. AM band is better now, but FM sux big time.

Funny you say that My GF and I noticed the problem with mine this weekend, and its getting worse. Not sure what the problem is. I have the basic setup BTW.

I get worse reception than my head unit that I got 8 years ago. Something is obviously wrong. Tint maybe?

Could be the antenna has come off the back of the head unit. It's easy to pull out and look.

it could also be if you have tinted windows.
