Hey guys, ive had my cobalt for a few weeks now and love the car, except the paint but thats being fixed. For the most part i listen to cd's but theres times where i listen to he radio if i get bored with my cd's which has brought me to this problem.

No matter what radio station it is, the sound fades in and out frequently with it, like its losing the signal and then it comes back. Ive never had this issue on any of my other cars and this being the newest car i have owned, is really dissapointing to me that i cant even listen to a radio station without it constantly fading in and out.

Has anyone else had this problem with theirs? way to fix it? or is it a warranty issue?

 

stock antenna still? im not familiar with any Canadian radio. Are you aware of the sound of the radio increasing and decreasing with acceleration and deceleration?

 

how much in and out...do you have the auto volume feature turned on??

 

I'm not a fan of the stock radio, I'm on #3 already.

 

im not sure...where do i find that lol

But yes still the stock antenna, And it fades almost too mute for half a second and then comes back for like 10 seconds and then does it again.

 

so not at different speeds or anything???
if it is at different speeds you prob have the auto vol button, its on the front of the stereo, middle section i believe (dont have a pic here) should say auto on it...
otherwise, try tigheting the antenna on the back and then if all else fails you can just pull the trim on the dash, unscrew the stereo to get behind it..and make sure the antenna connection is tight back there too....
ooooooorrrrrrrrrrrr take it to the dealer and have it all warrantied

 

i have to check the auto volume, but wouldnt that do it on the cd also?

 

if it was on auto volume, when he played cds it would change also........ I hate the auto volume, but my ex would always turn it on, so it'd **** me off if I drove after she did

 

I get that with my ARK antenna.
