Hi all
Its a UK 91 E34
Standard 4 speakers around the car, some previous owner added a cd player unit in the dash.
Now when i go over bumps, sound drops to maybe 1 left speaker, or 2, so thats none at the back, another bump might put sound to all 4....this happens all the time, so i guess it would be a dodgy bit of wiring.
Where would i start to look? I have no idea how BMW wired up the car.
many thanks

I would suspect it's not the BMW wiring, but how the guy who installed the CD player has connected into it...
Start by pulling out the CD player, and checking how it's connected into the BMW loom.
Connector blocks a good, twisted wires lacking insulating tape are bad!
If all looks good there, check the connectors onto the bottom of the rear speakers, sometimes they can get a bit loose with age, and a quick squeeze with a pair of pliers works wonders.
Dodgy.
Ok will try that, i never had a car stereo in 9 years, preferd the sound of the engine, and before that they were all standard and fine for what i neeed
ta!
