Burmester sound cracking/distortion but mostly at high speeds

Running into a weird problem with my 2016 c300 . I have the burmester system and I usually find sound cracks/distorts when I am on the road especially at high speeds(60-70mph) on the interstates . The problem is that it sounds mostly fine when the car is parked and not running.

Have the auto speed sound setting turned off. Any thoughts on how to figure out what's going on
Edit: This is mostly via Bluetooth .

Try to see if it’s only when you’re using the radio, my E class did that and it turned out it was the connection between the station and the car, never found a solution

Try plugging it in directly with USB.
