Default Ghost in the machine?

When starting my A4 the radio changes stations on its own Eg. When I turn the car off the radio is on 95.5, when I start the car later on that day
95.7 comes up then if I turn off and on again it will be 95.9 these are not stations only 95.5 is.
This also happens when I just turn the radio on or off, this happens 60% of the time.It always moves by increments of.2.Do I need a new Symphony radio or am I doing something wrong.Please help!

Default Re: Ghost in the machine? spending time in my A4

I have the same proble. So if you have a ghost, he or she is visting my A4 as well. I only had about 500 miles on the car so the dealer ordered a new radio. I am waiting now.

I also noticed that every once in a while the station indicator goes blank momentarily.

It happens to me about 75% of the time.
