I had the same problem with a Dodge Grand Caravan. The problem was isolated 
to the car radio clock oscillator. After much discussion with the dealer 
and next the designer of the radio ( a ham), they sent me another radio. 
This one had a different processor in it. The problem was resolved. I now 
frisk any car that I am about to buy with a HT to see where the noise is.
