Before jumping into the question I.e. how to get rid of the engine noise in the car stereo, let’s be clear about why it happened with our car stereo?
Reasons for Engine Noise
The defective speaker wires
Due to unshielded wires, amplifiers might not connect to the speaker and create an issue. Or poor quality can also be a reason for engine noise in the speakers.
Insufficient grounding
It is also a common issue, in which audio wires pick up the engine’s electrical charges and cause an undesirable noise. In a stereo system, audio signals are transferred to the speakers in the structure of electrical impulses. This issue occurs because sometimes the negative end is not attached properly to the engine body.
Defective RCA cables
The colorful cables you used to see behind the stereo are called RCA cables. Audio signals are carried to the stereo by this wire only if it is defective. So, it might connect the engine voice to your stereo while pressing the diesel pedal.
Once we get all the reasons behind this so now we can move to our main part. And for that, you need some items with you to act as a professional.
List of items needed
- Best quality of RCA cables

Steps to perform
Check cables reliability
This is the easiest thing to do in which you have to check all the cables and replace defective ones with good quality cables. Although you have to check all the cables one by one and have to do AB testing, by doing this most probably this issue will be solved.
Recheck your doubt about the engine
Sometimes you may be wrong that the engine is the only offender in this case. For this, you have to turn on the stereo and press the accelerator and again do AB testing. If you hear an unwanted sound while accelerating only you will make sure that the engine is the root cause of it.
Close the stereo and remove the speakers
Once you close the sound system and remove the speakers, now you can apply some other additional coating or shield on the wires like mu-metal. The wires could also be near the part of the engine with more electrical impulses and hence leads to undesirable sounds from the stereo.
Take out the stereo completely
Try this interesting method in which you just pull out your music system but don’t disconnect it with speakers. Now turn it on and if the noise gets reduced. It means there are shielding problems and for that, you can put extra shields using Mu-Metal.
