Has anyone ever experienced the shaker 500 door speakers make a rattle noise only when the radio is first turned on? Mine is starting to not sure if its a blown speaker or an issue with system that I can expect problems with down the road.

Hey stangman11,

Just saw this, and didn't want to leave you without a response. It's tough to diagnose it without seeing the vehicle, but the rattle could be caused by a wiring issue, or the speaker may be going. I suggest having your dealer inspect it to see why it started suddenly.

Please let me know if I can answer any other questions!

Thanks for the reply! Didn't think I was going to get an answer on this one. Its really an odd issue it only happens when you first turn on the radio and its a crack and a pop in what seems to be the DS front speaker. Then after the music plays it seems to diminish. I just want to see if its an issue with the entire radio because I have heard of cases of them going bad and that they are very costly to replace.
