XM Tuner Location?

[rae0568]

Is the XM tuner built into the radio or is it a separate module stored somewhere in the trunk? I've been without XM for two months now. The dealership replaced one radio but it has the same radio I'd which leaves me to believe the tuner is separate. SiriusXM said the tuner was probably bad and to have it replaced, instead the dealership replaced the radio and have since ordered me another radio because the first replacement didn't resolve the problem. Forgot to mention that I have the premium/technology package.

I don't know, and if I were in your spot I would not care, but would tell the dealer to fix the d**m XM radio and give me a loaner until you get it fixed.

For the Tech package the XM tuner is part of the digital amp module located in the trunk.

Thanks homeofstone and mikec for your reply. I finally got the dealer to agree that the issue was the Ext Amp Assy which is on order. I'm getting the feeling that Hyundai didn't want to approve the replacement because of the cost. After numerous unsuccessful attempts to fix the problem and dealing technical advisors at Hyundai, they finally gave in and approved the replacement. Didn't realize it was that expensive to replace, $2,470.09.
