Buzzing on car stero

    I have an Iphone 4s, just got a cable to allow charging and to connect to the AUX in the car. When I plugged it in there is a "buzzing" sound coming through the speakers, even when the phone is still in the home screen mode. When playing music, sound is very poor. When sliding from home screen to home screen, there is a swiping buzz.

    I have connected her Iphone 4 to the car and no problems, nice clear sound. Both phones are on the same network with the same IOS.

    Is there any settings I am missing that would remove the noise? Is there an update that might fix it?

    Sounds like some sort of interference. Where did you get cable from?
    Can you try another car?

    Make sure there is no dirt in the headphone socket on the iPhone. Has to a problem with yours if the girlfriends is fine.

    Ah, I didn't cop one phone works and not the other.
    Yeah you can hoover your phone plug to remove any debris, it could also be a hardware issue. Does yours work fine with headphones?

    Ok, I got the cable via adverts, it plugs into the main charging point and not the earphone jack. I found what the problem seem to be, Once I unplug from the power the noise goes. I cleaned the port out. Think there could be an issue with my phone, I have a dock station that my phone charges on but will only play music and not you-tube, but it plays it on the Wife's phone no problem.

    you have "dirty power" which is why you're getting a noise when the phone is charging. happened to me in my old car. I decided to live with it, but if it bothers you you can get whats known as a surpressor fitted.

    when you're sitting in the car with the engine running and the phone charging, when you rev the car do you hear a whine? if so you need a surpressor.

    Any idea on where to get one or how easy to fit? I sell car parts, but not electrical stuff.

    EDIT: Google my friend found them.
