But what gets me is one place keeps ignoring me and the other dealer in town says because I listen to talk and most people don't listen to talk it is my problem and I have to pay for it to be fixed.

You might want to file a complain with Toyota Customer experience center.

I'm having a similar problem with the Sirius receiver installed in my 2006 Prius and my AUX input. I have tried two Sirius receivers and two antennas and two behind-the-dash Toyota cable assemblies with no improvement. I get the noise at certain frequencies and sound levels so it is not noticeable all the time. This is with the car ON or in accessory only mode so it is not interference. It is worse with talk or songs with low pitched vocals. When I do hear it, it sounds like small rocks popping around in my speakers. I have not tried AM but I’ve noticed that I get the same noise through the AUX input between the front seats. If I play a CD in the dash CD player; no noise. If I play the same CD in an external CD player with the audio plugged into the AUX input; same noise that I get on Sirius. If I unplug the satellite receiver, I still get the same noise on the AUX input so the Sirius receiver is not the problem. I’ve heard that some 2006’s have this problem and some don’t. If anyone has any more info or a solution, please let me know.

Thanks,
Kurt
