    When I first start the Prius (2008) and turn on the radio, CD player or AUX, I get an extremely loud electrical sounding interference noise. But after 5 minutes or so, the noise goes away. I thought it was the audio unit, but if I do not turn the unit on right away and wait the 5 or so minutes and then turn it on, it is clear. Stumped.

    maybe you're getting interference while the engine is warming up?
