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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Anyone got any info about 996 PCM1 radio reception probs? Bought a '02 996tt in Jan, love the car but disappointed with the radio. It struggles to pick up more than a couple of stations where my old Nissan 200 gets loads. Is it a one-off problem with this particular car or is it typical of 996 PCM1? If so, what's the answer? (Didn't have the same problem with PCM on a 997).

POST 2Original post

I think there must be some issue with AM reception even on the new cars. I had a roof antenna fitted on my recent new car - an official no cost option - quote 'to improve medium wave reception'.

POST 3Original post

Sorry for some reason I thought you meant AM. The FM antenna is in the windscreen I think, has it had a new one at some point?? Maybe it's not there or not connected.

POST 4Original post

Up to 2002 will be one connector on the driver side of the windscreen behind the A-pillar cover. 2003 > on had two on each side.
