Having problems with my Antenna. I completely lose AM as I'm driving. If I get out and play with the antenna it comes back so I know its some kind of connection problem. Anyone ever replace or work on their antenna? I'd love any feedback, I can't imagine it's too difficult on these Elements.

Welcome to the club. I hope they keep making the Element until 2203.
As for the antenna does the station come in when you hold onto the antenna and then go away when you release it or is it staying on after moving the antenna around. If its the first you are becoming part of the antenna and boosting the signal witch happens with AM witch is Amplitude Modulation verses Frequency Modulation. FM. If its working after you touch the antenna unscrew the antenna and use a wire brusn or something like that and clean the threads. I have heard that getting the antenna base out can be hard as you have to pull down the headliner to get to the base.
