It’s little disc just under the dash upper panel. Like most radios FM uses the ground plane and that is the body of the vehicle itself as the antenna while AM used the center column. So I doubt it is an antenna problem or you would have both AM and FM effected. On our old beetle I had to put an FM amplifier on the radio to get good FM stations. Had the same problem with a Cadillac, put a FM booster on it and problem solved.
