Default GPS and engine noise

I have an issue with my Garmin Zumo 450. I had some engine noise coming through the speakers when I first put it on a few years ago, bought a noise reducer thing from the local mobile stereo shop, seemed to fix it. Just recently had to replace the digitizer on it, that part works great now, but now the engine noise through the speakers is back. Do those noise reducers wear out eventually? I know the thing is just some kind of capacitor and other stuff, but it seems almost too coincidental. Thanks.
