So perplexed.
To start, my vehicle is a 2013 2.2 SD4 with the base audio system (no satellite radio) that came from the factory.
I decided to listen to 5Sports today, so I went to DAB. There was radio and another category for CDs/iPods, etc., but there was no indication of DAB as an option on the screen, so I had to settle for the cricket commentary instead.
How did the DAB option go, and is it possible to restore it?

Oh, the joy of having the DAB choice vanish from your audio system just when you were about to enjoy some cricket! How aggravating! Are you trying to locate DAB for the first time, or has it ever been accessible on your '13 SD4? Someone here might be able to use that information to figure out what's happening if they knew it.

Could it be that in order to see the available selections (FM, DAB, etc.), you need to press the radio button?
I have a different type with the sat nav and TV option, etc., so I won't know for sure because I rarely use the radio. I'll check mine out later.

I used to listen through DAB all the time; in fact, I was up early that day. However, when I parked and did other stuff, the option was gone when I restarted?

Unusual, I've never heard of that happening

My 2016 2.0 TD4 SE Tech Auto's audio system recently went downhill. One day everything was fine, but the next day I couldn't find any way to connect to my phone's Bluetooth, SatNav was completely missing, and DAB station selection was unavailable in the menu.
For what feels like an eternity, I perused this forum —
The car's battery was disconnected and then reconnected.
Evaluated all circuit breakers, modules, etc.
Everything was well until almost three weeks later, when it magically reappeared on the screen and was functioning properly again.
Who can say for sure what happened with it?!
