A few times now I have exprerienced that the radio's dead. I try switching between the preset channels and I try scanning for new channels but nothing. If I turn up the volume I can here a little clicking sound every now and then. If I leave the radio set to a preset channel the sound may come back after some minutes while I'm driving.

I have experienced no problems with the CD player or the ipod interface. When the radio is dead I can still listen to those. I have the Business radio by the way.

Anyone else who have experienced this?

Did you ever figure what was the problem, I too have that same problem. Mine goes to static then comes on, the hottier it gets the more frequent it is.

Did you just get the windows tinted or had the car detailed/washed? Damage to the rear window can mess with the antenna....
