My Apple CarPlay is making a static/crackling sound and I don’t know how to fix it.
mu Apple CarPlay is making a static/crackling sound when playing music. Does anyone know how to fix this? I have a iPhone 13 pro if that matters.

The crackling sound has started happening to me recently in my 2019 Audi A4, not happy about this.
I’ve had my car for about a year, and no issue with car play until now. The crackling sound happens sometimes when listening to music and talking on the phone.
I have a 2021 Nissan Leaf and Ford F-150 and am experiencing the same thing. I've run a few extra tests:
I have the same issue on my 2020 Murano Platinum. Music works fine, but with cabled airplay it’s complete garbage. My Bluetooth has an issue with notifications. When my phone is playing music and a notification isn’t silenced it beeps loud and somehow makes my volume go to max. Crazy issue and so annoying. I have an iPhone 13 pro max.
today I tried using my iPhone 11 from work with the cabled airplay and it worked with no issues on the phone call. Perhaps it’s only effecting newer model iPhones? Idk but I’ve taken it to nissan several times to complain and they update the software but it doesn’t do much. Apple needs to address the issue.
I have a IPhone XS Max and same problem so not newer phones. Same on 2019 maxima and 22 leaf.
I did see you mention the IPhone X but for whatever reason the iPhone 11 didn’t give me any static. Strange issue and definitely annoying. At least I know it’s not just me having the issues, but hopefully a fix can be found. Regular Bluetooth Calls seem to sound good, but I prefer the cable for Apple play.
Ugh!! DEFINITELY having the same static problem! It’s terrible! I’m driving a 2021 Mercedes GLE, my phone is running IOS 15.6.1and when I turn on my Satellite radio, static goes away immediately! Apple please address this!!
Hi everyone. So far my solution is working very well. I simply bought a wireless CarPlay adapter plugged it in and now my phone connects to my cars CarPlay wirelessly using Bluetooth and so far has been working very fast and no cracking sounds.
My iPhone 13 was working fine 2 days ago, now the volume keys aren’t as responsive and at full volume it sounds like it’s only playing at half volume. And my CarPlay is up to date and never had a problem now it says I’m on a phone call when I’m playing music in my 2016 Mazda CX-5. When I try Bluetooth it also says I’m on a call and the audio isn’t as good when this happens. Audio plays great when it’s playing the radio. I’ve never had this problem before and my phone is on iOS 15.6.1
Can I ask what specific product you purchased? Went on Amazon and there are so many options so wanted to know which one worked for you.
Sure! I tried this one and it actually works well. I’m pretty happy w it. Minimal issues and definitely no more crackling which was driving me nuts.

iPhone 14, 2022 Jeep Wrangler. FM channels sound fine, but any time I play music through CarPlay I get random static and crackles. I’ve tried different official Apple cables, doesn’t matter. This happened on my iPhone 11 and my wife’s iPhone 14. This is specific to Apple CarPlay only.
I know this thread is a few months old but I just upgraded to iPhone14pro and Apple car play has a horrible connection. But my phone sounds great when connected to my car via Bluetooth. It’s definitely a car play issue
I had no problems with CarPlay on my iPhone 8plus up until yesterday.
Hey bro. Get a wireless car play adapter. It’s the only way. Read above. It worked very well for me.
Same issue on my 2020 Altima. I have noticed it seems to crackle the most if I have the Maps app open, if I have the phone app open it seems to be less. Have tried different cords, I also just got the iPhone 14 Pro Max, does it on it as well as my 12 and 13 Pro Max’s.
Did you try the wireless CarPlay adapter? It works very well. I’m super happy w it.
