Livinia poor radio reception

Having a frustrating issue with my 2012 Nissan Livinia, gasoline engine. The radio reception is terrible. I keep getting an error message about signal loss, and sometimes the whole audio system cuts out. A mechanic said there's an error stored related to the antenna and suspects it might be defective. Has anyone else had similar problems with their Livinia's radio?

I know exactly what you're talking about! I had almost the same issue with my Livinia. It was like the radio signal was trying to swim through mud – weak and constantly cutting out. I started thinking it was something electrical, like a loose antenna ground. Have you checked that?

Thanks for the reply! An antenna ground? I'm not really sure where to even begin looking for that. Is it something relatively accessible, or am I going to need to take half the car apart? Any pointers on where to find it, or what to look for?

The antenna ground can be a pain to get to. It's often behind the head unit or near the base of the antenna itself. If you're not comfortable fiddling with vehicle electronics, I'd advise getting a workshop to take a look. My issue ended up being a defective antenna, and after replacing it the radio works as normal. It cost me around 255€ for parts and labour.

Thanks so much for the insight! It sounds like it's probably best if I just get it looked at by a professional. I appreciate you sharing your experience, at least I have an idea what I'm up against and a rough estimate of the repair cost.
