FM Reception Question



Check the antenna for looseness.  On my Passat, the previous owner tweaked
the antenna, which became loose as it comes through the roof.  By
tightening the nut (you have to go pull down the headliner) the ground
plane was re-established and my reception came back.

Good Luck.
