I found reception diminished a little when I fitted the stubby, but at the time I was living in a rural area north of Sydney. Since moving to Canberra I have not had any problems with reception dropping out, even in tunnels.

Those ones that dubaddiction sells are on point, grab a new rubber base, if your's has seen better days or missing like mine was.

Yeah I have OEM on my GTI and its the worst reception i,ve ever experienced.I,m in Sydney too.
Would love a solution?

If water has gotten in past the base then it could be you need to do what the guy does in this video - or buy a whole new antenna.
