I've read many posts in here pertaining to AM radio problems on the 9-3. I have a 2002 9-3 (30K miles). The problem is a cutting in and out of the AM radio. When it cuts out I can get the signal back by doing one of the following: + Pound my fist on top of the dashboard + Press the face of the radio inward + Press the molded/padded dashboard perimiter just below the radio Now, it may take several attempts to get the signal back. No issues with FM at all. I had the radio replaced a few months ago, but due to age the cars warranty expired. Any thoughts? Not sure what the dealer can/wants to do, I'm there enough as it is between maintenance anf other oddities. Thanks, mark
