Whenever I use my Aux input to play the songs on my ipod, the sound from the speakers is exactly what it would be like a cheap speaker when you turn the volume at max and the sound just cracks. but it is fine when i listen to the radio. I have tried using a different aux cable. but the problem's still there. What can I do?

hope some1 can help me thru this!

THANKS!!! X 10000000

the aux adapter in the car is probably just bad or a loose wire

oh, my car is still under warranty, is it free to get it done?

absolutely, just go to the dealer and say your aux input isn't working and they should do everything to make sure the car leaves with it working!

you should be more specific atleast, they'll test it out and find out its working and youll be back to square one.

Could it possibly be that your music is low quality?

i find the same problem with loaner new 2010 328i stock sound.the sound just awful. with cracking sound in it... But I never had this problem with 335i..maybe you need adjust Eq and start using CD or just install ipod cable.

In AUX mode play with the AUX-VOL cursor. I had the same problem and 8 months later I noticed that AUX-VOL was at maximum. Set it in the middle

If I have my Iphone volume set to maximum through the AUX-interface, I experience similar problems. Certain songs sound really terrible.

But if I lower the Iphone volume to say 75% that problem goes away.

However, I still experience that CD:s sound better with different bass than AUX if I use the headphone jack.

This little thing solves that problem though: http://www.sendstation.com/us/produc...neout-usb.html

really? so, all you r saying is that put the volume down through the Aux interface? i didnt know that you can do that... because from what i can remember now, its like a blank page?

I will try putting the volume down then. but only through the aux interface, right?

I actually tried putting the volume down by using the buttons on the steering wheel but that cracking sound is still there even if the volume is at a v low level. but i will try doing that as well. thx guys!

on your stereo display select AUX-VOL and play with the toggle on your right. I think you have 6-7 vertical bars. Move it in the middle. When I first plugged my ipod I told my wife "what a crappy sound" and stopped using the ipod. After 8 months I came across a thread pointing the same problem.
