I thought my radio did the pop thing, But i was the bad quality CD recording that sucked.

 

WOW, I have not heard the popping as of yet and with MOST people saying that they have I'm almost scared. I have heard a popping with a crappy mp3, but then the next song was fine, and it was not very loud at all. Does anyone know the ETA of the software fix????

 

I would't worry about it unless you actually experience it yourself. I haven't heard the pop even once the entire time I have owned my HHR. Most dealerships won't fix a problem that's not there. I had a hard enough time getting them to reflash my HHR to take care of my starter problem. I had to prove to them that my HHR was having a problem with the remote start. I kept getting, "Just because there is a TSB doesn't mean that your vehicle has that problem.". If the radio pop elevates to a recall then I'll worry, but in the mean time I have no concern.

 

When you get the "pop"...you'll know it...

Cause you keep playing "Death Metal" and scare the crap right outta that "Pop" on your system!!!

 

ROTFLMAO!

 

Yeah Loud rock would do it

 

I have had this a few times as well. Glad to know it is being dealt with. I notice it has only happened when I use the auto start feature.

I have had the "crackle" more than a pop since day two of ownership. Mine has "crackled" in every situation with remote start, without, it. using xm regular over the air etc. My dealer tried a fix with a new radio unit butalas, it crackles also.

 

My radio "Pops" more times than not, when I use the remote start. (patently waiting for GM's software update)

I also have to call the dealership today to find out (ask) why my cigarette lighter (dash power port) doesn't have any 12v juice?? I never noticed until recently I went to plug in a radar detector and there was NO power. However the other 12v power ports work?
