So after 2 1/2 years of waiting, we (like tons of others on here) picked up our DM M3 yesterday. Can't help but compare it to our existing MS and have a question......
When driving in the 3, completely silent, with the radio off, we hear a high pitched whine that goes higher when pressing on the gas and lower when letting up. Kind of like a jet engine whine, or when you try to tune in an AM station on an old-timey radio. Is this an idiosyncrosy inherent to the M3 due to less insulation (or whatever?) that we should simply accept? Or something that we should question? We certainly do not hear any such noise in our MS, but of course that car is a different price point and build.
Appreciate any information you may be able to share! Thanks!
