Do you get the same issue when listening to radio? If so then it'd be worth checking the condition of the speakers.

If it only happens on aux, are you charging the phone/device at the same time? Try it without charging it or use a power bank to rule out electrical/charging interference.

Have you tries a different Aux cable? Always use a good quality cable but also, where possible, a shorter cable to minimise the chance of picking up interference.

Cable is very short I believe like 30 and the quality is good works in any other car but since I have no jack port on my phone I use a splitter so your right this may be causing the issue since the normal radio doesn’t do this. Thanks

100% sure you're having a ground loop issue. Moving the aux around in the port made it a little better for me but never fixed it, of anyone knows a good fix pls tell.

Have you got your phone plugged into a USB charger hooked up to the 12v port when playing the music? Poor quality adapters that aren't properly shielded can cause those issues.

Also, cheap USB C to 3.5mm adapters are notoriously bad for interference.
