Audio problem please help!
My 2 week old TSX with Navi developed an audio problem last night, and I just can't fix it! So I would appreciate your advice and suggestions.
Last night, the first symptom started when I noticed that the clock was suddenly flashing "1:00", then it would go back to the normal time. The audio system was not on at that time. When that happened, it sounded like the CD changer was getting busy trying to do something. That happened a few times. Then when I tried to turn on the audio system, it showed an "err" message. Later, it requested for a "code". I had company last night so I didn't do anything about it.
This morning, I read through the relevant chapters in the manual. I proceeded to enter the code of the anti-theft system as described and the audio system came back and worked well again. However, all the preset stations were lost. Just when I thought it was fixed, unfortunately, the same trouble occurred again and again, as if suddenly the audio system power was cut off somehow, and so the anti-theft system kicked in.
I checked the audio fuse in the internal fuse box and that was OK. No battery warning light came on at all. The Navi and climate control system continue to work even when the audio system was out.
I am going to contact my Acura dealer tomorrow, but in the meantime, I just wonder if anyone else has had a similiar experience, or knows what is going on? Please help! Thanks.

I contacted my dealership today. After hearing my story, the service guy just went ahead to order a new replacement radio/CD. I do HOPE that that is the source of the problems...
Do they have to take the dashboard apart to replace that radio/CD player? I hope it won't make the rattling/creaking worse!!! LOL
