Noise through speakers with car off
So is this a normal thing; with the car off if I open the door or when I shut the car off the speakers will emit a sort of white noise for about 10-15 seconds then it stops. Radio is off as is everything else I'm aware of, it's not a problem just wondering if that's normal or what. Definitely coming out of the speakers, not engine noise...I did put my ear right to each speaker and can hear it out of them all. Only the 2nd day with the car so I could be missing something, would not be surprised.

So I did a little more testing and what seems to be happening is that anytime power is triggered for things like the overhead lights or dash lights while the car is off triggers the 'R1' relay in the fuse box under the bonnet. Almost seems like maybe a bad ground for the speaker system, or something like that, which would cause the noise of the passing electrical to pass to the speakers
Going to try and make it to the dealer tomorrow so I'll post their findings. I haven't been able to confirm the speakers make any added noise with the car on and the radio off but I'll check that too.

Well the verdict is in...."normal" behavior is what the dealership said. Even after hearing it they weren't sure so we checked out some other new ones and they all do it, apparently the countryman is much more noticable for whatever reason. The tech believes that it's just interference being picked up by the speakers as they are powered with the car off to provide sounds for things like the key being left in etc.
So, it's either really normal or they are all broken

You should have heard my car go ballistic the other day after a hard rain. It started shrieking, playing test tones out of each speaker at random, crackling, popping and altogether acting possessed. I was talking to a friend on the phone and all they could hear me saying was, "x;aogdidfasd BRITISH!!! oasdgfyaoie39 BRITISH!!!" What I was saying was, "Holy crap! My car's gone British on me! It's gone British!"
Then it stopped. Completely. Like no sound from the speakers at all, no matter how high I cranked the volume.
