Might be an idea to get it anyway. Isn't AM/MW/FM being turned off in the next couple of years??

No chance, not until they stop selling non-DAB radios entirely at least.

If you listen to Radio 5 it's great, I've had it for a couple of years and wouldn't go back now. Had very few reception problems with it in the XF

Chose the option in the E60, and now came as standard in the Lexus... only wanted it for the cricket!

Hi, I've got it in my Focus and had one or two dropouts but nothing to be concerned about. Radio 6 is brill...

I had a Revo DAB a few years ago and that was useless, always cutting out but new one never does, no idea if it's equipment or signal imprevement

I apologise, didn't make myself that clear - the Sony I currently have is the first DAB car stereo that I have owned. The first few weeks of ownership it used to cut out quite a bit, but now it's much better. Perhaps something to do with the Beckley transmitter here in Oxford??

Hi I have a spare bmw oem dab module if that's any good to anyone. It needs to be coded to the car, and I can show you how I retrofitted to my e91. This is the proper installation rather than the autodab or celcus retrofit.

Did you sign up just to post this? In my searches on e90post I'm sure I have come across you before? I take it that you didn't flog the module on there or eBay then?

What year was your e91 and did you have Idrive?
