It seems that the electronic braking system in my 04 E320 has begun to
interfere with the AM radio. When I apply the brakes when the car is in
motion, the AM radio becomes all static. When I either release the pedal, or
the car comes to a full stop, then the reception goes back to normal. Mind
you, this only happens when the car is moving, so it's obviously caused by
the brakes actually working, and not by the lights or anything else. Wierd.
Anyone else ever hear of this?

Could be improperly grounded rotors. heh.
Does it do this in the wet/rain too?

I would highly suspect bad grounding... check your brake light switch
grounding by the pedal... then I would check all the brake light groundings.

I forgot to mention... I would also check the grounding on the antenna
amplifier and the radio itself too.
