My radio reception is not terrible ie I can get Kiss FM, Radio 1 and Heart OK in London (NW2 postcode).
Other stations such as Capital Xtra (96.9 & 107.1) are very fuzzy and faded, despite me being in Zone 2 of London, North West. On my old car (Peugeot) Capital Xtra sounded perfect in the same location, and my flatmates audi is crystal clear. I also sometimes find Capital breaks up where I have never had issues previously.
The car is a 65 plate Fiat 500L, only 13k miles... I have tried to change the antenna with a Fiat 500 one from the Fiat website, have removed the radio and checked the aerial is connected in the back, have removed the felt from the roof inside and looked at the antenna connection, the wire seems to go into the antenna on the roof just fine.
I have tried removing my USB charger from the cigarette lighter with no difference.
I have upgraded to the latest uconnect version (v13 I believe it is).
1) Do others have similar issues?
2) Does the 500L have a booster for FM radio integrated? Where is this - could it be faulty?
3) Any suggestions for fixing?
Thanks all in advance
