[QUOTE="Firewalker, post: 8782928, member: 676743"] Telling ya use another ground wire just to try or check the original one. Taking those dash covers is really easy on those at least. Kenwood/JVC have those issues. Used Kenwood/JVC head units for years as they are the same company. I had a '99 Grand Cherokee and put in a Kenwood Excelon KDC-X998 and used the existing ground wire. Within a couple weeks I had to do another one as it started to do what yours is doing and it stopped the distortion right away. Something to try doesn't take but a few minutes. Engine noise can happen at any time out of nowhere. Agree with Mats above thinking it is a loose ground someplace. At least if you put the OEM radio back in all it takes is swapping out the harnesses since they just click into place. Should be really quick to do. [/QUOTE]
