Audio Systems: 2002 Audi A4 Avant -- AM Radio Static, antenna amplifier, rear side windows


Question
2002 Audi A4 Avant -- AM Radio Static
AM radio has static on all stations ONLY when the engine is running. All FM stations clear. Engine RPM or vehicle speed - has no effect on static. I do not have window tinting. The colder the outside air temperature or engine bay - the greater the static. The more the electrical load applied – the less the static. ie:   Turn ON Headlights – Less Static. Turn ON Rear Window defrost – Less Static. Antenna is embedded in the rear side windows. It's driving me crazy since I like to listen to the traffic report on the way to work. Thanks for your help. C. J.
