    Sounds like the old days when you had to fit a supressor(sp?) on your stereo to stop interferance from your spark plugs

    Sounds like it could be an earthing problem, have you had the battery disconnected recently?

    With your new exhaust is there now a floating wire that was connected to an O2 sensor or something?

    My last mini one only did it when the ipod tape thingy was in and no music was playing, but the new one as i said does it every now and again.
