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...

I have a 2002 W208 CLK320 and when I have the radio on and then put on the rear screen heater the reception goes really bad, anyone got a fix/suggestion.

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

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...

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 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...

Afternoon all - first actual post after much lurking. EDIT: it seems I have posted before, must have been so long ago that it slipped my mind! My 2002 W203's radio (standard CD unit, Becker?) has suddenly stopped picking up MW/LW stations. FM is fine. If you scan MW/LW it scrolls through the...

My radio reception is very pony - as in - drive out of town and I just get hissing. This response was on another forum...got me thinking perhaps my ML W163 suffers from the same? -------------- "My Mitsubishi has an 'active' aerial with an amplifier, that needs 12 volts. This is normally fed...

My SatNav reception seems very erratic, varying from times when no satellite signal at all is displayed (not even a '0') to getting up to 8. This is totally independent on weather etc. as I sometimes get nothing at all on cloudless days as well as fair reception in bad weather. Usually each...

hello could anyone please advise how i could improve TV reception whilst still and moving? is there such a thing as a signal booster? Also, is there a way to connect a freeview box to the TV tuner? by the way, i have a 2005 (W211) E350 Avantgarde :rock: thanks Jandu E350

Whewre is the ariel sited in a 2003 SLK 230, I cant get very good radio reception and I wanted to check a connection

Just bought a 2003 CLK 320 Avantgarde Coupe with Comand Satnav and Bose sound. Having a problem with the radio reception: all the FM stations tune in perfectly but the sound fades in and out whilst driving and I can't tune in or locate any MW or LW stations at all. I can best describe the effect...
