im not 100% sure but,

doesnt the unit get its earth from the antenna?

so it would need the antenna connected for the cd player to work,
and if it was even a poor connection it would still have a signal for the radio,even if it was a shite signal?

i know that from some older ones ive had,but not sure on audi radios

Mick is right it is in the rear windscreen, i got a small unit that you stick inside behind your rear view mirror and run the wires down trough the A-pillar, alot better reception then original antenna, alternatively if you have windscreen cover pop the window and claim :)
