My car suddenly started making a loud high-pitched hum this morning and would not stop! Radio stopped working and rear parking sensor also did not work. Kept on making the noise whilst driving home (15 mins) and continued when I stopped.

Tried all sorts of things in settings but to no avail. Left it alone to have a look on the forum and it just stopped on its own after 5 minutes or so. Seems okay at the moment but have no idea what caused it and why it stopped. Anyone else had this?

Yep - I had this once I think, not long after getting the Enyaq, last winter.

Pretty much as you described but I think the sound I had, was a prolonged ‘freezing’ of the tone that plays momentarily when selecting reverse. It just continued for at least 10 mins.

What I recall about that time when it happened, I’d jumped in the car and selected reverse immediately; I perhaps hadn’t given it enough time for all its systems to boot properly (maybe?). I tend to wait a few seconds now before selecting reverse. It happened when I tried to reverse off my driveway.

Same thing happened to me this morning. Even carried on after I stopped car, got out and locked it. Eventually stopped it by forcing infotainment to reboot with a long hold on on/off button.
