I can tell you the 'engine noise' you hear is more than likely a whine.
That can be fixed. Go to a reputable stereo shop in the area and tell them
you want to put filters on your stereo. This will fix the problem 90% of
the time, and it's inexpensive. Probably looking at 20-30 bucks to put a
filter trap on your speaker wire.
