Speakers blown in brand new M2C
Hi guys, I turned on my car today and was instantly greeting with very loud booming and crackling coming from the speakers. The sound continued for a few minutes regardless of whether I had the volume muted or not. Now, theres no more crackling but I have no speaker functionality whatsoever. Rainy and moist day here in New Brunswick, Canada. I'm guessing moisture got in somewhere and created a short. Anyone have any advice?

Had a similar problem in my M235i. It would happen randomly, but would self correct after turning off the car for an extended period of time. On the next start up everything was fine. Have you tried parking it for a few hours and retrying?

I'll def try again tomorrow but the way it sounded through the speakers, I feel like some sort of damage took place. Thanks for the advice!

Sounds like water/moisture has got in the amp. Well known problem, the crackling and booming can be ear splitting and puts the shits up you when it happens. There’s a vent directly above the amp left hand rear arch which is poor design imo, have a check if it’s dry in there. Trip to the dealership as it won’t get any better, had my amp swapped last year and now my ASD module has gone pop.

Easiest way to get access to the amp? Through the trunk?

Yep this guide for fitting the ASD bypass harness is good.

Then again, why pull it all apart anyway? It's under warranty, let the dealer figure it out. |

Definitely sounds like the amp problem. It's pretty well documented

Now the ASD is playing up I’ve got noise from the sub under the seat so not sure if it’s the ASD module or the speakers given up. Will find out on the 1st feb when the dealer has a look. |

Just had my 2018 in for weird speaker noises, they replaced the amp, after first pulling off both door panels and swapping speakers between them, and then temporarily re-pinning the harness back at the amp (to make sure it wasn't wiring, I guess).
After they finished their troubleshooting, then I guess the new amp was approved and now everything is working again... except they re-coded the car so some of my shit was factory defaulted again.
