Audio Problems

My girlfriend was driving the 135 today and said that at one point when she got in the car, all audio went completely wonky. The sound that the console makes when the key is first inserted in the ignition was nearly inaudible and very fuzzy. The same thing happened with the radio (radio, cd & bluetooth) very low volume and lots of static.

She said this continued the whole way home and she tried turning off the car / turning on several times.

She told me when she got home and we went to go take a look - when I tried my key everything worked fine, then tried hers and everything seemed to work fine.

I know she's not imagining things...so has anyone else had issues with the audio?

Same thing happened to me once a few weeks ago. When i was getting out of the car and the key was in the ignition the reminder chime was extremely loud and fuzzy. It was very weird but has not done it since. This is one of those things which will be very hard to reproduce for the dealer to fix.

my radio did something strange one time.. i was just driving along listening to music and everytime i hit a decent size bump the music would go fuzzy for a second then after a little driving it kinda fixed itself

My radio (AM/FM) was not available via iDrive. Only AUX and CD were highlighted as options. This was fixed when I started the car up the 2nd time and hasn't happened since. I don't think this is related to your issues but I thought I'd share anyway. :biggrin:
