Hi all E60 sifu,My current ride was 525i msport japan spec.i can listen local station without actual frequency.i guess alr added fm booster.I dunno where the previous owner put the fm booster.i cannot find it behind the radio even taking out the whole radio.and also been check at rear boot at navigation area.nothing found.any other place to keep it?can it added behind ccc?Or any other way they boost the antenna?like added extra antenna?I want to take it out because i cannot get actual local station frequency after i done coding.which mean i can get all the local station like local spec.I can get all the radio station name at my idrive,but the frequency is different.causes sometime no clear while car motion.(example 9.29 is 1.037 / 1.018 is 9.89) i think is booster problem so its added 20-30 frequency.Regards.
 
If u r planning to do coding, I wonder why you have not thought to ask that guy to remove it for you..

Bro Wang, was it a simple job?? So actually where is the antenna located?
 
Bro, its very simple job.

The antenna is located at beside the 3rd brake light. Open the roof cover for 3rd brake light then you will see it.

Manage to locate my booster, it hide in behind the ccc unit...

oic,ccc unit have any antenna cable? or its radio?
 
Just a radio connected to an antenna cable...the fm booster was at the middle of radio and antenna cable. Need to cut out the fm booster and re-join back the antenna cable and directly plug into the radio.
