Ever since the temp has dropped into the teens, my car audio has been acting up on the Corolla XRS and Infiniti G35. The XRS aftermarket amp won't work until the car gets warm..and the G35 as soon as you start it, I get loud popping/feedback/thumping through all the speakers(stock BLOWS I mean BOSE system in it). Can cold weather affect amps until they warm up?? Also how bad is the popping/feedback for my speakers in the G. It's only for a few seconds and not INSANELY loud, but it's definitely loud and sounding like the amp shorting out for a few seconds. And after that seizure of a sound stops, I get little pops(sounds like you're shocking your finger when you touch something metal you know?) for a few more seconds(radio works during this time). Also it makes that loud sound even with the headunit off(so I think it's the amp) and goes away once the inside starts to warm up

I've never seen any issues with AMP's not working right cuz of the cold. So couldnt help there. As far as the popping sound goes, check all your wires and ground for both of them. Seems like a minor short somewhere.
