hello guys,

it seems like several members on this forum have experienced the sub par Bose audio in our 03 - 04 G35 Coupe..

just this past weekend my front left bottom speaker died out all of sudden when I tried to listen some burned music CD .. however, when i switched it to FM radio the speaker came back to normal and everythign is okay..

then last night i tried to eject the disc and put it back in and everythign is working again as if nothing ever happened!!

so here i am wondering.. is my speaker just acting up and it may die out anytime soon or it was because i was listening some burned music CD and there might be some scratches on the discs??

if my speaker is dying out soon, then why is it okay everytime when i listen the FM radio? does radio use a different output channel as opposed to listening from CD?? Is there anways I can fix it or have the dealer fixed it for me before my warranty is due in jan 08?

i am sorry if this sounds like a dum*b question but clearly i am a total noob when it comes to electrical device...

any inputs are greatly appreciated!!

Bose car audio is always sub-par.

The problem is probably something like a loose a connection somewhere at the amp and it just happened that when you turned on the radio, it just re-established the connection.

Those are my thoughts.

the same thing happened to my 04 coupe. its not the amp or the speakers because i ran tests on both the speakers and the amp. its your bose head unit.

i've been told its really expensive to replace so you might wanna go aftermarket on your stereo.

i found a dash radio kit for aftermarket stereos. check it out.

Check the easiest thing first. Make sure all the rear amp connections are tight, and drive it for a few days. If it doesn't do it again, you're good. If it still does it, the speaker lead should be checked.

If that doesn't fix it, head unit...especially if its an 03-04 deck.

Hello,

I have repaired over a dozen of Nico members units. If there is a problem in the radio I can fix them. We charge $225. If you have any other questions please contact me.
