problem #1

May 302007

(reported on)

Passat GLX 2.8 V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 90,000 miles

At about 90,000, radio would only receive 1 or 2 FM stations that had large enough wattage. No AM at all, even with local large towers. Unscrewed roof antenna, cleaned contacts, tapped on it... nothing. On-Line guides tell me about bad grounds or radio suffering from receiver meltdown. Sounded pricey. Now I just use CD player.
