Experienced this issue on your Passat? If so what was done to fix it? In my case pressing buttons does not stop the noise, it will go on for almost 5 minutes. Also I have a problem with my navigation freezing up when I hit the he nav button, it will lock up sometimes for 5 to 15 minutes.
Encounter loss of sound from speakers? I installed a line output converter for my 2 12" subs and I recently noticed that there was no sound from 5 out of the 8 speakers. I checked the LOC and I noticed that the box had melted on the sides, I dont know if this is the cause. Subs are still working though. I dont know what to do or how to check and see where I should start to diagnose?
View 3 RepliesI've had my B6 eastate a week now, and when messing with the stereo setting the bass n treb, i noticed there`s no fade control from front to rear. Ive just sat in the back and there`s no sound at all from the door speakers.... is this normal..??? (19 Tdi) Find it hard to believe on a car like this they would only conect the front....
View 2 RepliesI have a 2000 VW Passat... I have had the car for a few months and have noticed there is no sound at all coming from the rear speakers; HOWEVER, there is a little sound produced from the rear tweeters when I fade my aftermarket Pioneer deck all the way back to the rear. This problem is consistent on both the left and right.
I have looked a little and found it could be the wiring in the door hinge? But wouldn't that also relinquish power to the tweeters?
I have a 1999 Volkswagen Passat GLS. Bought it used just the other day with no radio in it. I put my after market Blaupunkt in it today and it took me seriously 5seconds. Instantly had sound, but it was only coming from the driver's side front and rear, but the volume was weak in the rear. I was going to look for the amp, but idk if it had the monsoon sound or not. Has 4 speakers and 4 tweeters, but i'm not sure if it's the Monsoon sound or Premium.
why my antenna is very weak as well? why I have weak/no sound output from my speakers, if I have premium or monsoon sound and why I have such a weak antenna and how to fix all of these things.
My car came with the Evoms CAI stage 1 with the sock. When its drawing in air I'm getting this annoying whistle sound. Ive had other intakes on my other R and this is just plain annoying.
View 19 RepliesI've done the best I can to block out an annoying sound coming from what I think are the door panels (unsure at this point).
When I bring the vehicle to a stop, release the brake and give it some gas (light to moderate acceleration, mind you), 90+/100 times I get a clearly audible "click" from one or both sides of the car. It seems to be emanating from the door panels. Sounds like hard plastic/plastic of maybe plastic/metal sound. It's not loud, but definitely there and definitely annoying since I enjoy driving without the radio on.
Issue was acknowledged by a tech and service manager at the dealership, who agreed this is not normal for a MKV, even one with 40,000 miles on it. However, they offered no solutions, only horror stories of fighting with door alignment on a MKVI.
I have a 2002 1.8T with about 75k miles which makes a harsh rhythmic sound at idle after about 30 minutes of driving. If I tap the accelerometer to increase the rpm and release it goes away and is silent. Recently it also seems to be making the same sound when it starts but goes away as soon as I drive. The sound seems to be coming from the front lower right (passenger side).
I have changed the timing belt about 18 months ago (along with the water pump, tensioner, etc. using an ECS tuning kit) and it ran fine (seemed even smoother than before) but it had a small engine oil leak which my mechanic fixed. I think this sound started after he repaired the leak. I've left the car with him for a week and he just called and said it he couldn't figure it out but it could be an oil pressure problem but I have not had any issues with an oil pressure light.
I have had issues with the P0411 code over the same and have replaced both the secondary air pump and the combi valve but the code just reappeared and my mechanic says he has checked the entire system again and can't figure out what is causing the problem. Not sure if the two can be related but just thought I would add that. The car runs fine otherwise and I have always used synthetic and the large oil filter but I am beginning to think this could be a sludge issue (the noise).
I ve this annoying sound in my car and i think its my rear wheel bearing. My car ( 2005 3.0 TDI V6) is also due for the 4th Long Life Service. I was told that this is a major service.
View 6 RepliesMy Passat 2.5 SE goes into the shop next week for the dreaded driver's door wind noise, I gave the SM a print out of All the Postings I could find re this Issue. No way can he offer up the usual BS"
I told him he has the car for 1 working days.. if it's not cured by then I want a Loaner & he can keep the SE until such time as the Wind Noise" is cured...Overall the QC in his workshop leaves a little to be desired, having had a dealership in the UK I kno' what to look for in a workshop. Having told him that I will sit there and wait until my car is 100%, I think he got the message!
All cars have a few foibles, having run Jag's, Porches, Big Fords, Big Hyundai's & driven everything from the latest Maserati's to the cute Ford Ka's like life everything is a compromise. The Passat SE in my view is a 7.9 maybe 8 out of 10..(Pedals & Wind Noise are my gripes)
adjust the electrically adjustable seat to her position. Since that is quite further forward than my programmed position the seatbelt was quickly choking her. So before I knew (I was sitting next to her) she unbuckled, with a bang.The bang was because there was quite a lot of pressure on the seatbelt.
No harm, nothing broken, at least ... until I heard the ping ping ping sound even though both of our seatbelts were in their sockets or whatever you call them. Inserting again, no change. Still the 'seatbelt light' on + the annoying sound.
Should I try to open the seatbelt socket/block/the thing where you insert your seatbelt in and see if there is some broken wire inside ?
Annoying key chime whenever I open my door the truck starts making a annoying chiming sound. Where the chime box is??
View 5 RepliesI took my 2000 Passat in and had the front suspension checked out. Everything is fine, tight and everything it should be but something is causing an annoying squeak when going over bumps. I assume its a bushing that has dried out between the rubber and metal. Is there a special lube I can spray on the bushings to stop the noise?
View 1 RepliesI don't know about all you other B6 owners, but my dash rattles and makes an annoying noise on every bump. The noise is similar to speakers crackling (bad description).
View 14 RepliesI just got a new 2014 camry LE. Overall it is what it is and I am very happy with it. However one thing that is got me annoyed is that there is a hiss coming from ALL speakers. Even if the radio is off the hiss is there. Basically after some experimentation, any time the head unit is completely booted up the hiss is coming from the speakers.
To make sure it is not just my car, I checked out a few more LE from the dealer and they all hiss from the speakers when the head unit is on.
Havn't had a chance to get off work to go to the dealer yet but a buddy at work tells me his older Bimmer had a similar issue. For him, it turned out to be the amp was set to max so that max volume would be achieved. For him he was able to adjust it.
Do the Camry's have a similar adjustability? I'm willing to sacrifice sound level for no hiss.
I sold my OEM navi a while back and never really drove the car enough to care I didn't have a radio. So this weekend I picked one up. Its a kenwood unit single din. The problem is that there's no sound coming out of the speakers, and i know everything is hooked up right and the headunit is playing because I was able to hook up and external speaker to play sound from the back side of the adapter. They worked all before and nothing has been changed or anything they are all OEM speakers.
View 4 RepliesTurned car off yesterday for 2 minutes when I started it back up no volume coming from the radio. Everything seems to be working just fine except I can't hear a thing. Tried Factory Reset didn't work also pulled the audio1 and audio2 fuses and that didn't work either.
View 1 RepliesI start my truck up today and there is no sound from either door speakers. No crackle, hum, or nothing. Tweeters work great, extended cab speakers work fine. I read in another forum that it could be due to rain. It did rain all night. How can I protect future speakers?
I have 2007 Extended cab z71.
I have cd radio and aux all working on my 2010 corolla, the sound do not come from speakers. I tried another radio it works. I tried another stereo with tape in it it doesn't work. I tried my stereo on another car it works. What I don't understand is why only stereo with radio only works but if i have cd or tape player with it don't.
View 9 RepliesMy mother owns 2011 Rx350. She bought it used few month ago. Car's great for what it is and makes me feel relieved to think my mother's driving a car that is quite safe and reliable.
That being said, the car's audio have created some problem recently. How it happened other than my mother's assumption that her water spill at the trunk may have caused the problem. She don't know how much water was spilled and not even sure if that is exact reason. (It's about that time frame that audio started having problem, hence the assumption)
So, the problem is that the sound only comes out from the front speakers. I am not sure how many speaker there are at the front, but it is as if fader is set to front all the way. If I move the fader to rear, it kills the sound from the front and since there is no sound at the rear, it just dies out as soon as fader moves all the way to the rear. So with the fader and balance at the center, sound is only at the front and plus there is no bass sound also, assuming subwoofer (if any) is at the back and not working also.
My mother claims that it comes back to normal sometimes but I am not sure how often that is since I do not drive that car too often and I just found out the problem today.
Try setting your fader entirely to the back speakers and tell me if the sound coming out is at all full/complete. I can hardly hear anything coming from the back.
