Might be worth checking that the radio frequencies/multiplexes haven't changed in your area before you investigate a fault.

Or just use FM, usually better for me. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto
5 x FL2 4 manual + 1 auto

I don't have any problem with DAB in my area but I know some do and it's usually is area related. Which I've found when traveling about. MY13 HSE LUX Aintree Green
MY57 SE Stornoway Grey. Gone
Nissan X Trail
Discovery V8 LPG

My DAB is also rubbish. Waste of a button. A chocolate tea pot is more useful.
If I had ordered as option I would be Censored off.

I notice your location is Wales. I'd say DAB reception is patchy in many parts of Wales. ...

Be true to yourself. That way happiness lies...

It does actually stand for Model Year. My car was manufactured in August 2014, first registered in Sept 2014, but it is an MY15 on Topix and on all documentation from LR.

TBH the freelander DAB is totally Censored .
Mine almost never works well

Recently I had a DS for 7 days, and drove over 1000 miles.
The DAB in the DS is far superior, and worked more than 95% of the time on the runs where the FL2 never worked.
