I think I got similar problem on my 2005 E320 CDI. I was in process to change speakers and problem solved. If you ever get a chance to replace non HK speakers, you can see what kind of garbage it is ..It is $50 junk ...

As long as noise in not from front, I am OK

After I replaced speakers, I didn't hear noise anymore ...It could be wire, contact ..whatever ..it is only electrical part in door. When I put speakers, I put attention for every detail and it could be a solution ...

If you want quick solution - disconnect speaker, drive for a few days and see if any difference ...I think it could be quicker than replace speakers and get same problem ...If any problem with speakers, I would put money on tweeter ..

(you will probably get more related answers to your question if the title of your post actually is illuminating, instead of a generic "I wonder....." kinda statement )
