Well I am now officially “Two Jags”.

I have bought a 2014 XF Sportbrake but have an issue with the audio system.
The car will not tune to DAB stations, it just says no function.
It tries to tune but picks nothing up, anywhere.
Jaguar are bring unhelpful.

Can any one please help ? Its the only issue on this fantastic car.

Thanks

Never had DAB but I know it's more signal-sensitive than FM. Aerial problem perhaps?

I am thinking it could be, but believe its a roof lining job.
Really hoping its not.

Hi,

No it doesnt, I am thinking about getting one though, why ?
Do they cause issues ?

They can affect the DAB signal if not suppressed properly.

Highly likely to be the dab module. No need to take it to Jaguar dealer just find an autoelectrician local to you to swap in a new one. The new one doesn't even have to be a Jaguar part either - this is what I did when I experienced the same fault and was stuck to listening to FM or Spotify which to be fair wasn't the end of the world.
