Title: LED lights, DAB radio
Post by: dubsport on January 03, 2016, 06:03:16 pm

Anybody experienced DAB radio being blocked with LED headlight bulbs or fog light bulbs?

Happening in my 2012 2.0 TDI Caddy  :surprised:

Any info or advice appreciated

Never experienced that. Ive got DAB RCD510 with Fiscon basic plus. Loads of LEDs including P21W LEDs and Valeo led tail light upgrade   What aerial do you have?

I have herd of it happening in people homes were they have upgraded to LED lights and it has interfered with radio signal.

I have and RCD 310 with VW TPK phone kit, just standard aerial which is built into windscreen on the caddy i presume.
