The FM reception on my 99 S80 T6 is really poor.
It's so poor that it makes me think that maybe the antenna cable is disconnected.
Does anyone know where the antenna is located in this car......is it in the rear glass ?

any help much appreciated.

I recently purchased a 2001 S80 and the radio reception on it is horrible, both FM and AM. I had anothre serice problem (voltage regulator) that forced me to take it to the dealer for service, so while going through the initial interview, I asked them to check to see if there was a problem with the radio antenna.

After they checked, I was told that everything was as it should be, but they could add a clip to the antenna that would help a little. The service rep went on to add that these cars have crappy radio reception and the $50 clip wouldn't make much difference. I passed on the clip, but was charded $20 for the diagnosis.

I plan to take my car to a car audio shop and see what can be done to boost the reception. I'll follow with a post here with what I find.

There was a recall on the antenna booster, if I remember correctly. It is below the window, just infront of the C pillar on the driver's side. Call your local Volvo dealer and ask.
