Drivers Report Lost FM Radio After MBUX Update in 2025 AMG E53

Some owners of the 2025 AMG E53 are reporting that they lose FM radio reception after installing an MBUX update. One driver on MBWorld asked whether anyone else is experiencing the issue and whether they would need to pay for an additional digital extra to restore the feature. The complaint is currently anecdotal, with no official response or confirmation from Mercedes mentioned in the sources.

The report appears alongside other recent Mercedes-related news from the same outlet, including stories about an aging S-Class, a DTM-inspired Iride Evo 5, the new AMG GT 53 4-Door Coupe, an updated GLA, a final sendoff for the A 45 S hatchback, teaser images of the G-Class Cabrio, and the 2027 Maybach GLS 680.

A separate item notes that a record-breaking sale on Bring a Trailer was confirmed as legitimate by the selling dealer and Hagerty after initial skepticism.

For now, the FM radio issue remains a user-reported problem without verified details or a known fix. Owners who have encountered the same after an MBUX update may want to monitor forums or contact their dealer for guidance, though no official solution has been published.
