Squeaky speaker, and xm radio signal fix?

[ClarkDalton]

Just picked up a 4runner and I notice if I hit a bump, my from left speaker likes to physically squeak a little bit. If I push down on it I can manually make it squeak. Im curious if itd be something that just needs tightening or maybe its common and yall know a easy fix.

Secondly is my radio signal. I have noticed while listening to XM radio my signal will sometimes cut out. I can understand about when im underground or even in a parking garage, but ill be going down the street and itll pop out. It isn't something that happens often at all but I was just curious if maybe there was a way to boost my antennas signal.

Any help is much appreciated thanks.

Take the grill off and tighten the tweeter. If that doesn't fix it, it's likely the grill not the speaker. Use some foam tape on the back side to isolate it from the dash. XM cuts out, just how it is. Same as your cell phone, there are dead zones at random.

Satellite works on direct line of sight. What kind fo roof rack do you have? Tall buildings, trees, even power poles and the power lines can breakup that signal and give you drop outs.
