Hi, no it has not been solved. Since my last post in 2020 I took it to 2 indys and a dealership, no solution. Dealership said they would need to do pin testing which can involve stripping the entire electronics of the car to locate the source of the problem. They said this could cost multiple thousands so I said no thanks. Sadly, I've been driving around with a bluetooth speaker since which sucks.

My Ride: 2007 530i. Automatic sunroof
Hey everyone,
I have a 2008 528i with 68k miles. About 3 weeks ago, I started my car and noticed that the speakers were only transmitting a muffled bass sound. The idrive is working fine, except for this audio issue. I replaced fuses #18 & 34 to see if it would help, but no difference. Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated!

You can save thousands by learning how to trace it through yourself. I don't know how many thousands I've saved doing it myself. But I've been in electronics since I was 11 years old though.
