Why does my car make a noise when I turn it off?
The “pinging” noise you hear is coming from the hot metal cooling under your car. As you drive, the engine and all the parts around it start to heat up and expand. Once you turn the car off, those metals will cool and contract. These tiny bumps produce the “pang” or “ping” you hear coming from your turned-off car.
Why does my subwoofer thump when I turn it off?
There is energy stored in the woofer (inductor) or in the capacitors of the amplifier, which causes a back-EMF when the circuit is cut, much like when you turn off a fluorescent light; sometimes you see a spark at the switch. Any transient tends to make its way to the speaker, causing a pop.

Why is my LG Soundbar popping?
If it begins to crackle and pop as you set it farther away, then it’s interference. Get into the settings of any wi-fi devices anywhere near the soundbar and/or the subwoofer, and see if it’s at 5 ghz. The bluetooth signal of the Soundwafe is on that band. If you can change to 2.5 ghz, good.
What causes interference in a car radio?
Car radio interference originates usually in the ignition system, the charging circuit or among electrical accessories. A rapid crackling, or a ticking noise, that intensifies with engine speed almost certainly is conducted, from the ignition system – the most common source of interference.
How do you fix radio interference?
What to do about radio interference
- Check your equipment.
- Check your aerial system.
- Check for a weak signal.
- Check for multi-path interference.
- Check for radio transmitter interference.
- Check for co-channel interference.
- Check for electrical interference from power lines.
- Check for electric fence interference.
What kind of thumping noise does a car make?
It sounds as if I have a bold spot on a tire and is very faint. I can also feel it faintly through the steering wheel. It’s not a ticking or hard knocking noise. Also, the noise is variable depending on the speed AND the duration of noise is also speed dependent (going slow, the thump is drawn out. Going faster, the thump duration is shorter.)
Why does my car make weird noises when I Turn Off the car?
