Trying to tune DAB in my 2009 2.0 Diesel

Postby bobthomas911772 » Sun Feb 11, 2024 6:16 pm

Hello!! I recently bought a 2009 Diesel Sovereign and now trying to get the DAB signal. I've been through the manual and it mentions Auto Tune but can't find where or how to find this! I'm ASSUMING that I will be able to set up DAB from completing the Auto Tune process, but this is assumption... If anybody can help me that would be great! I've tried on the interweb and gave up...
On a positive note, in trying to find the correct section to put my question I have found two answers to two little niggles on the Forum!! That of a buzzing noise and a cool running engine.... Brilliant!!
Sorry if I have indeed put my question into the wrong sub-section!!

Hi, DAB was a £350 extra when the facelift model was launched (in the Nov 2007 price list) so I nice upgrade to have. However I do not have an image of the control panel to see how it differs to the standard system with the addition of DAB. The button labelled A.MEM is all I have on my non DAB system to tune in the available stations. Hopefully another owner with this option can shed more light on how DAB is accessed

The original owner of my Sovereign went for analogue TV instead of digital DAB. Well that worked out well :(

Anyway my handbook does cover the DAB option, so with that knowledge I hunted down this link to a free copy online to save having to scan it etc.

No download required - just move the slider to page 270. Looks like you just push the Tune icon on the screen and wait?
