Static with Euro Comand and Navigation module

Recently upgraded my 2003 E320 to Euro Comand and Navigation module in the trunk; very happy! Except for this loudcrackling staticsound I hear every day while playing DVD, ipod, CDC. I donâ€™t hear the noise at first, but after an hour of driving I get this crackling static sound through the speakers; starts gradually, then it sounds like all hell is breaking loose. It lasts for about 3-5 minutes and then goes away. Did as much troubleshooting as I could, checked and rechecked all connections, grounds, swapped out Euro Comand etc. Found thatwhen I removedthe Navigation module from the trunk the static went away, and did not return until I reinstalled the module a few days later; repeated procedure twice over two weeks, same results. Thinking that the module was bad, Iwas able to geta second module, installed it, and ended up with the same problem.

Any ideas
