  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

I’ve had this happen to me twice now and next time it happens I’ll have to remember to record it.

- I drive with xm radio mainly. Today I parked my car like usual. Came back and the volume was much louder and a staticy radio station I didn’t recognize was playing. Turning the station controls on the steering wheel changed stations according to the nav, but the staticy music blaring out remained the same. Turning the radio on and off, it remained the same. Finally I changed modes and xm came back on and stations changed again with the display.

Anyone else seen this happen? Seems like a glitch to me where it got stuck on some weird preset station in a mode I don’t ever use
 
Sounds like the stereo gremlins are on the move today. I have no idea about what would cause your problem. And I can't imagine trying to get it to happen for the service tech. Good luck!

I was listening to XM very loud while trying to evaluate front speakers cutting out and changed the station to FM and couldn't hear anything through the speakers then I had to turn up the volume to hear the FM station. I don't know why the volume went to zero when I changed stations.

The infotainment system remembers the last volume set for each AV mode at power-down. I think it syncs up if you're listening to different inputs on the same trip, but it might not.

Went on a 12 hour trip and the front drivers side speakers cut in and out every 5 or 10 minutes and sometimes all of the speakers quit working for about 15 or 20 seconds which happened about 20 times. Dealership couldn't duplicate it but I now have a recording of the events. Does anyone else have these issues?
