Static noise from speakers?

Hi all,

So I installed the Focal speakers about a year ago. No problems whatsoever since, absolutely loved the speakers. But starting about a week ago, I started getting a static noise coming from the left side door panel, from both the speaker and the tweeter. I thought it may have been interference of some sort, and realized I recently hooked up my phone to the bluetooth of the car. So, I tried disconnecting it, and still get the same noise. Any ideas?

It seems like the noise comes with the tone frequency, only occurring sometimes. The noise gets louder as I turn the volume up. I also thought it may have been a rattling noise, but I removed the door panel and held the speaker alone in my hand. Same issue. This leads me to believe that it may be a grounding issue perhaps?

Again, it only occurs from the left side of the X1, nothing on the right. My guess would be a grounding issue, but any other ideas? Also, would BMW be able to check this out under my warranty despite replacing the stock speakers with this Focal kit?

Thanks in advance!!
