Alpine upgrade issues

225_AB · 10-14-2016, 02:43 PM

I had the Alpine upgrade fitted to my pre Lci e92. For a while now the sound intermittently cuts out from 1 side or the other. I think this is due to a faulty amp. So a) is this likely and b) should I replace the alpine amp with another alpine amp or are there other good alternatives?
Thanks

If its still under warranty then ask bmw to so it.
If it is cutting intermittently, then perhaps amp.

There is no alternate which replaces oem alpine amp.

Aftermarket alternate are gladen and other kits but complicated to install.

Thanks not under warranty but mainly driven by my wife who doesn't seem to notice it. I will try and source another alpine amp, thanks for your advice.
