I had the same exact problem. Toyota changed the Amolifier that improved sound quality but not the FM Reception.

THE HARNESSES CONNECTING ANTENNA TO RECEIVER (TWO OF THEM) HAD IAASUES. REPACING THEM FIXD THE ISSUE. FM RECEPTION EXCELLENT NOW !!!!!!!

SOURCE: I have a 2008 Toyota

Yes, it is possible. Every head unit has aux input, it might be an RCA or stereo plug. Just use an RCA to stereo jack cable or stereo to stereo jack cable.
After connecting the cable, you may now select aux input to the stereo and play your Ipod.

Radio static

Check your antenna. If the mast is not extended, your reception will be limited. try an AM station, usually a local AM station will still come in even with the mast down. Have you tried playing a CD (if equipped) ? If that plays well, you've confirmed lack of reception as the problem. If the mast is extended and you still do not have reception, the antenna plug my have come out of the back of the radio. The requires removing the radio to check.

Radio reception in 2003 Mercury Grand Marquis is poor. Very few stations come in and static is louder than program. CD part of unit works great.

Buy yourself an aftermarket antenna and install it. Do not get a power retractor, nor one with a ball on the bottom, just one of those simple 31 inch rod units.

You will most likely have to pull a fender liner to mount it and fish the cable around to get it to the back of the radio. Try and avoid an extension cable. A local car stereo store could do this cheap in about an hour. Retracting antennas, in the windshield antennas just do not work.

I have an '02 Kia Sedona. Rasio has been working great for all these years but now various stations have very poor reception. We have checked the antenna and it is secure and looks fine. Any ideas?

Did u set ur radio to "LOCAL"?
If u did, reception will be poor, undo the "local" setting for normal reception!
Hope that might help u out!

No AM radio reception in my 2002 Audi A4

do you get any stations, even weak stations on the AM band?  If not you have a bad radio and need replacement.  Try having someone hold the antenna as you scan the AM band.
