A8-911-Odyssey

This morning, after a very cold night (for St. Louis - high teens) my 2004 D3 audio system is making a horrible sound.

I would describe it as a static & feedback mixed sound that comes only from the left front speaker just behind the main instrument cluster.

The MMI is working fine with the radio and cd inputs. Tracks, stations etc. are all accessible on the MMI screen and the "horrible" sound is a distorted version of the input.

When I play with fade, balance, treble, bass, and surround settings it changes nothing. In additon, the mute button does indeed mute the sound so at least I can tuirn it off.

Any ideas? COuld it be melted & re-frozen ice into some compartment that froze and shorted something?

Thanks in advance!

Your car sits outside? When mine is out and the temps dip, I get some VERY strange noises!

I had this exact same problem this morning.

The car sat outside in 6 degrees.

Anybody know of a fix for this?
