I have a whine as well most audible between 2.5k and 3k rpm. I've replaced the tensioner and the alternator and belts. I also replaced the oil pump for fun. I briefly ran the car without the main belt to rule out power steering. It has been doing it for at least 5k miles. Seems to be getting a bit louder but I could just be getting more paranoid over time. I finally took it to the dealer and they said they had no idea. They said “it might be normal”. I think it is annoying and drowns out the good noises.

I still have no idea what the whine is. I gave up replacing random things, just hoping someone else figures it out some day.

Maybe this explains why BMW added the active sound design to mask off the whine everybody can hear
On topic, I can hear a whine and it sounds like it’s coming from the engine. I’m suspecting it’s the turbochargers and something to do with the hot V design. I have my active sound off. |
