Re: Stereo Alarm
The same thing happened with me some 2-3 days back. I pressed another channel and everything was OK.
Can someone tell what is the thing.

Re: Stereo Alarm
This may be a false RDS alarm signal. The RDS-system has an alarmmode which switches the radio to an alarmbroadcast, like "traffic" and "news" switch the radio to a traffic or newsmessage.
Because you were driving through a tunnel, it's even more likely it was an RDS-signal because most tunnels have advanced securitysystems, including RDS-transmitters. In case of emergency they broadcast instructions or warnings.
