I've noticed poor (i.e. worse than my previous car - a Mk3 Mondeo) radio reception on my W211 (58 reg, with original/NTG1 Audio 20) - lots of noise, and RDS often not retuning when moving between signal areas.
Initially put it down to just being a bit worse, and in marginal reception area for national stations (near Bath - quite hillly) - local radio stations much better. And was worrying that when I install the NTG2.5 Audio 20 (still need to get loom adapter/cableset) it could get worse still and I would lose radio 4 for good!
Noticed yesterday that when I turn off the ignition the signal is much better (much less hiss, and suddenly TP signals received), and it gets worse again when turning back on - even just going to phase 1 (not starting glow plugs or engine).
Anyone else seen this? Any ideas why this might be?
