bad static on the AM radio. Hit the door lock button or adjust the seat and it clears up for a moment. Any ideas? Also, seems as if I'm not getting her into overdrive at highway speeds. Otherwise, shifts find. RPM's are at 2700 at 65mph. Help

Hi,

We have the same AM radio static problem with our 2000 T6. (Cycling the master door lock switch or repositioning the seat fixes temporarily). There are two service bulletins 39-0018 and 39-0025 do do with AM radio static. 39-0025 may be relevent but looks too difficult and costly. Our service tech just rolled his eyes when we asked if the surgery would be successful so we are just going to listen to FM and continue to cycle the door locks for good AM reception.

Good Luck!

Sometimes the repairs will work and other times they will not.

As for the trans is there a message about servicing the trans?

I had the same problem w/ AM radio in my 2002 T6. Dealer said there was a service fix and took care of the problem. I was in warranty so didn't cost me, but I think I would put up a fight w/ the dealer if they didn't fix it at no charge.
