johned Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Just bought a 2013 plate titanium X Business edition estate. Very pleased with it but the DAB is crap. Only gets about a third of the stations my last car did and even then they only stay tuned for a few seconds before dropping in and out. Anyone aware of a problem with the DAB from this age of car? Is there a common fix? Thanks John. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianincheshire Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 There are some reports of issues with the diversity aerial in the rear screen and the connections/module associated with it. I had a problem with mine after a year or 2 but that was different. The DAB was fine at first but then stopped working completely, and was fixed with a software update Have a look at this http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/forum/post/index.htm?t=105082 particularly the post about 2/3 down Quote Have just reurned from the garage with a now working DAB radio. The diversity antennas in the rear windows are connected to a small module via a black connector on the glass at the top Both modules had been incorrectly fitted at manufacture. They live in the gap between the headlining and the roof These were replaced - will post pictures later together with the old and new part no's Not sure where the module would be on an estate though...
