I was rammed from behind a couple of weeks ago and had to have a new bumper and boot lights replaced, and now have a problem with my DAB signal dropping out all the time. Could this have anything to do with the repair as not sure what wires are in and around the bumper area. I don't think it does but people on here will no better.

What model is it (MK1, facelift MK1, grand sport)? On the MK1 the dab aerial was a wire set into the rear screen, and on mine reception was crap. Mind you, I live in the Pennines, so I'm lucky if I can get radio 4 sometimes! Reception on the GS is a lot better.2018 1.5T SRi Nav
Bi-colour 18" alloys, de-chromed grille and foglights, full heated leather, reversing cam with park assist, heated front screen and steering wheel, blind spot monitoring, self parking (used once, it's crap!), Nextbase 522GW front & rear dashcams

The modules are bolted onto the tailgate and are fragile......so maybe it's been damaged or even possible that the plug has came undone.
Just a few ideas buddy.... process of elimination.

I experience regular issues with DAB in my sports tourer, hard to hold signal for more than 5-10 minutes sometimes.
I've always just thought it was early DAB and must be a flaw in the design/system. I have a 2013 Insignia and was considering whether to try upgrading the aerial possibly, not I see the above link and know where the mechanics are I may try to check nothing is loose.
