Ah, sorry Embarassed

If it gets better when you shut down, it does point to some sort of connection issue surely Confused

I'm wondering if it's either a bad earth on the radio, or the antenna connections in the rear quarter windows have corroded.

I was just seeing if anyone else had this issue before I start pulling trim off! RRS gone

bad reception

think it may be a transmitter thing, its the same on our RRS as it is in my VW transporter VAN, Ive got an ariel booster as well, think they must be doing some network upgrades it started on tuesday and is still the same today in both vehicles.

It could be atmospherics as well. Discovery TD5 commercial (gone)

^^^ Sounds plausible, awd, try tapping your postcode into this site and it should tell you if there is any maintenance work going on.
