Yes, outside France we also have such problems and I appreciate all your help. The dealer indeed checked only the resistance (was OK) but when I almost dragged him to another, almost similar car, he had to admit that there is something strange. He did not check the other things mentioned here, thank you for the hints
!
Today he told me he has found a similar configuration with better reception on AM (he seems not to believe me that it also effects FM and TMC) and will order a new cable and an amplifier.
I have my doubts, since the cable is the only thing which was checked on its resistance and found OK. Putting an amplifier on a weak or almost non-existing signal is not helpful either.
When this does not lead to a solution, I will get in touch with Renault in our country. By then the dossier is heavy... but am -as said before meanhile some 17.000 kms further on a 34K Euro car...
As to choosing another dealer? Consolidation here caused that all Renault-dealers in the region belong now to the same company...
