Did you use a signal seperator/preamp interface? ie.

The above refers to 'bee sting' aerials, but also applies to integral
glass aerials on a lot of Audis.

Okay, that's probably it. I'm going to check this out.
Strange that I didn't have any problems in my VW cars...

2) Whenever I turn off the engine, the radio goes
dead...OK but I would like it to switch off when
I pull my key out of the ignition not when I turn
off the engine.
The ignition switched feed on that age of vehicle is almost certainly
CAN Bus. To connect an aftermarket radio so it switches on key
removal, you'll probably have to locate the switch feed on the back of
the ignition barrel. Depending on the radio's ignition switched feed
current consumption, you may well then have to fit a relay in line to
give the feed sufficient capacity.

going to check this out.

Thanks again for the response.
