Odd one, does it do that at lower volume. seems it cuts off when the bass hits harder. Amp maybe.

handsfree for your phone on? have you tried a cd? Turning off sub? to me it seems to cut off every time the bass is going to hit.

Ok I was not sure what noise you were referring to but I went back and hear it, its not noise its a voice speaking in Spanish I could not hear much but he was saying station numbers. Put more of the video on your youtube let it play longer so I can hear what they are saying in case its a pirate station. if not its your radio gone bad AM band could be leaking through.

Try swapping the AMP. Borrow one, and plug it in without mounting to save time. Takes a few seconds.

I wonder if the ANC (Active Noise Cancellation) is interfering with the radio? What leads me to believe this is that OP says he still hears a sound when the radio is off. There are a number of threads here on AZ, but I haven't taken the time to read them in detail

I was leaning towards this and the amp being culprits as well.

Scratch that completely just changed it and it's still doing it could it be the radio unite it's self? If so how does an aftermarket look on it? I like how it looks stock tho which sucks but I need music

Hey, I have a radio unit for sale if you decide to replace it. What are the numbers on the tape deck door? I will see if I have a match.

i've referred to it as the shift boot console/trim and super easy to buy off a part out.
