When I listen to XM satellite radio, I hear what sounds like an altenator whine/hum. It was disgnosed as such and my dealer replaced the altenator. No change. Now it's been almost 2 months and they keep telling me they cannot figure it out. Looking for ideas to suggest to the dealer. I feel it's in the stereo unit, but nothing from the dealer. Ideas anyone????

Ideas anyone???? Did you ever figure this out? I am having the same problem with a 2009 Santa Fe w/ XM/NAV. I haven't taken it in yet though Seems like this guy was having the same problem: http://www.crownvic.net/ubbthreads/ubbthre...;Number=1770226 (A grounding issue with the XM unit) He fixed it by adding a ground loop isolator: http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.js...oductId=2062214 Worth a shot anyway (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) -Matt
