Possible problem with Canbus???

Hello,
For a few months I am having a strange problem with my car..

First it started with audio-10 turns off...
While listening music (tape or radio or cd .. doesnt matter) it suddenly turns off. And when it turned on, My Equalizer settings seems lost.. Just this.. No lost on radio memory..

It happens a few times in a week..

Then.. I had another problem..
A few times just after I start up the car (a few seconds later) my left signal started to blink and at the same time horn one time. After a second everything gets normal..

It made it a few times..

Now, symptoms started to increase

Now a few times in a week, I am having that signal/horn problem while driving..


One time after I had this problem, I drove to my service and connected the car to star diag software..
It give fault on Audio Device lost canbus connection error or something like this.

Then I also realized, sometimes the volume buttons does not work on the driving wheel.. Then it starts to work by itself..

All indicates like something wrong with canbus communications..
But i wonder if it might be related to audio-10 device? or sam unit? Or maybe alternator ??

Any ideas are welcome.

Canbus scan shos a lot of Audio Canbus communication error.
Even after cleaning all error messages, it comes up in a few minutes. But meanwhile tape goes on working..

Anyway.. new sypmtoms started..
I had SRS error recently.. Went to mechanics and, another canbus communication error with SRS module..
Anyway. cleaned the message..
In a few days It made it again..I decided to drive the car with error message until I revisit the mechanics..
Tonight, after i ignite the car, in a few mins, my dashboard started to go crazy.. All dash lights turned off.. Just high beam blue light was on..(but headlights was normal) then in a second it turned to normal..in a few mins it happened again..
and again and again..
Can it be related with EIS/EZS?
