Shots in the dark? How about what you are using, what is the equipment. Does it have noise with out the xm, like with use of cd or radio?
How about more info so there won't be shots in the dark!

OK I would look first at the RCA between the XM tuner and the aux in on your deck. Thinking you might have a ground loop. Try a ground loop isulator. Also check and see if the shielding on the RCA has been crimped or pinched any where.
