Bad FM reception with X5 F15

having problems with poor fm radio signal on any fm station.

I receive few FM transmitters and often unstable.
What could be the cause of this defect?
Is there an amplifier F and where is it located in the car?

Thnaks for your help

In order to look up diagrams etc to be the best help we can be...we need vehicle information...at the least we need to know your model/model year in case there's a change of location during production run...or different location due to different engine or transmission etc.

Help us help you better (in the future)...give us enough vehicle information.

The following link & diagram below is for a 2016 X5 50ix and shows the location of the various antenna receiver locations:



The illustration below shows the location of the AM/FM aerial and was found on the TIS website: https://www.newtis.info/tisv2/a/en/f...ial/1VnXFKrNts

My wife's X5 receives FM radio stations with clarity but it drops signal in a few areas where our other two vehicles have no dropout.

Where do I start checking connections etc. ?
