RE: Dab & FM reception poor

Here in the US: I got a call from my dealer last week that I was to bring my RRE in for a "reception module upgrade" because some owners have been reporting poor reception, and Land Rover has a fix. I haven't experienced poor reception in my RRE, but I took mine in to the dealership yesterday for the upgrade. It took them about an hour to complete.

So this must be an issue Land Rover is well aware of and, yes, they do have a fix for it.

Hi, thanks for the replies. Has anyone in the UK had this fix done by the dealer?

Anyone getting poor radio reception with a steel roof Evoque?

I know the sat-nav aerial is different without the glass roof. but don't know where the radio aerial is, if it's built in to the side glass it rules out my thinking on this one.

The aerial is in the side glass doug!

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

Still can't find the aerial, on the discovery you could clearly see it in the rear side window, but on the evoque no sign of it. Any ideas?

I always thought it was the dome on top of the boot door.

I think that's just for the sat-nav, but I could be wrong Confused

RE: Dab & FM reception poor

I have a real problem with my radio reception, it's poor, I have contacted Landrover and have had the car back to the dealer, the dealer has been really helpful, the technician agrees that the radio isnt ideal, the garage compared it to another Evoque, this car was the same, a poor radio reception. Landrover have said they are not seeing many complaints, I think there is a problem with the radio, landrover customer care have not offered to do anything to help, and have said that if they find there is a problem they will contact me. This is poor customer service. The car is excellent just unfortunate this let's it down.
