Does anybody know how you may be able to check signal strength or the best way to approach the dealer about getting this rectified ?

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • PistonHeads: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

The DAB tuner in my newly purchased 2014 981 Boxster continually looses reception and reports no signal. I mentioned it to the service department who have advised its been checked and its all functioning correctly. I drove the car home and on the 45 minute journey it lost signal over 20 times upto a minute at a time. While my car was in being checked i was loaned another 2014 981 Boxster and on the exact same 45 minute journey on the same day and within the hour it didn't loose reception once, so I'm ruling out any weather conditions!!! Does anybody know how you may be able to check signal strength or the best way to approach the dealer about getting this rectified ?
