Hi all
I mostly lurk around on here and absorb info (when possible). I inherited a 03 Golf TDI when my brother passed away late last month. Lots of upgrades done to it which I will post maybe with some pics later.
My question is, stereo reception sucks. He lived in the city where it didn't matter. I live 80 miles from the nearest big city, but our local city has a decent station I like to listen to and I can't pick it up even 6 miles away. My other vehicles have no problem. I have been searching everywhere and I can't tell if the antenna has an amplifier that needs power or not. I am pretty sure the vehicle did not have the monsoon system. I do have the Bentley you all refer to and maybe I just am not looking in the right spot. Hopefully one of you can help me. I am not new to working on cars, in fact have 20 years of professional Toyota experience. I am learning much more about VW every day now ?. So far I love the car. Toyota never did this power and torque combined with excellent fuel economy.
Thanks for helping and I hope this is in the right section.....
