reception

Have lost reception on the radio on our W203 COMAND (both FM and AM). Seems to have just happened, and only thing that has been done recently on the car is changing the batteries on the key fob as the distance of use were going. I mention this as I've seen topics about key fob reception...

Hi, Getting familiar with my 2004 CLK-240 Sat Nav I find that Traffic Messages can not be displayed and the only message I receive is "Presently No reception". Checking on the instructions manual I see that this feature is not applicable in all european countries. Is the UK one of those? I had...

How do those of you using DAB find the reception ? I had an Audi A4 wuth a DAB radio and it was fantastic with no break up on routes to work etc. The Merc DAB,on the other hand, is a nightmare cutting out all the time. I have rung the garage and they will take a look but i just wondered if ,in...

Hi guy, I hope somebody can help, I have installed a pioneer D/din sat nab system and the radio reception is terrible FM and AM. I have tried all types of aerial adaptors but none seem to help. I did remove the interior light and noticed a black box bolted in the metal above the windscreen with...

Hi, I'm new around here - just picked up an 2008/58 ML63 last week. The car is amazing but the TV reception is very intermittent. I was hoping to use TV tuner to also get digital radio stations - to avoid costly DAB upgrade. Anyone else had reception issues with TV and been able to boost...

I have the freeview digital TV function on my S211 and I've just noticed that it won't pick any channels up. Any ideas what could be causing this? The DVD and everything else works fine.

Hi all. Bit of help please. The reception for MW radio is very poor quality. I'm a fan of 'talksport' radio but can hardly listen to it.. All help and tips appreciated. Thanks.

Just noticed that I cannot view the TV on the comand screen. Tried all preset channels - all I get is a blue screen with no sound. BTW I can play DVD's no problem. Nav, Radio, CD & MP3 discs all fine. Is there an aerial connection that may have come loose? Coincidently it has just had an oil...

I don't believe my radio or aerial is faulty, but my radio reception is average at best. Does anyone have the same problem? I've looked into getting a larger aerial however there doesn't appear to be much out there.... Thanks, Ed

Problem: moved to a larger house. Only one phone socket at one end of the property. This is connected to a cordless phone with 3 handsets. JUST NOT GETTING A GOOD RECEPTION AT THE OTHER END OF THE HOUSE AND KEEPS DISCONNECTING. Apol for caps. What is the best solution here? Is there a...

My newly acquired 2003 C320 has rather poor reception on FM compared to my previous car and my partners car. It has the standard fit single slot CD / radio system. I cannot see any external aerial so I am assuming it is either hidden or uses the rear screen? Are there any places to check for...

Hi all. i am deciding on my caterers for the reception part of my wedding. From any experiences you may or may not have had, who would you choose between Ragamama's or Madhu's... Thanks guys

Just got a 2008 facelifted SLK200 and am not impressed with the radio reception. Any thoughts on how I can improve it? Can I fit a DAB radio without messing up the fascia? Presumably I will need to replace the aerial too. Geoff

Hi, I'm looking for some ideas to help with an odd problem my 2004 E320CDI W211 has developed over the last week. If the rear heated screen is on, the radio reception is very bad, even on strong signals such as Radio 2 - if I turn off the rear heated screen, the reception is great, and it...

Anyone found a way to improve AM reception on clk,s. Have recently bought a clk 320, 1997. The standard stereo still had a cassette loader and non existent AM reception, changed the head unit for another cd/bluetooth etc jobbie but still no AM reception.This seems a common problem with clk,s but...

I thought others maybe interested in a little known discovery I made whilst looking to a solution for the above problem. For years I have lived in semi rural locations where mobile phone reception is iffy to say the least. Working from home as I do only exacerbates the problem with me...

We have a problem with our satellite reception. Our property has a boundary with a public park. This park has many mature trees in close proximity to the boundary. Occasionally we have problems with the overhanging canopy affecting our own trees and bushes, but the council (which owns the...

I have an 04 w211 - the radio reception is really rubbish. If i'm driving along, it can hold a station for a little while but then it fuzzes out and i have to switch. What cables do i need to follow and what boxes do i need to check? Could it be as simple as a loose aerial lead at the back of...
