Speaker noise/rattle

pmlzl · 02-09-2015, 08:17 PM

So I as s rule listen to loud music but today I was playing music from my phone and accidentally turned it up really loud, like piercing loud and now my driver side rear speaker has some noise/rattle. Any thoughts?

Shoot, really? Wonder what it will cost to replace it? Any suggestions? I haven't upgraded my stereo or speakers so it is the factory system. 135i coupe

You could just buy a nice sounding exhaust if you don't already have one and roll down the windows and listen to that. I recommend BMW's Performance exhaust.

I love the reply about the exhaust! I love the way my car sounds with no mods! Recently my mechanics were talking with me about mods they would do including air intake, exhaust, and a Cobb performance upgrade! Actually thinking about that!

You should consider it. I have a few very simple BMW mods (see my sig) and they make a big difference to me. I wanted to stay OEM but you don't have to, to get the most out of your car, and to get the most bang for your buck.

I love the way BMW's Performance exhaust sounds with the pops and crackles of BMW's Performance power kit. Music to my ears. I almost never put the stereo on and roll the windows down instead. Look into it.

Awww man. You broke it! Find an affordable replacement and fix it yo-self.
