When I drive over 40mph, my new (purchased in Dec 2021) M3LR, make a weird bussing noise.
I have deduced the following:
- It is not wind noise. It is almost like a very rapid ticking/bussing noise.
- It does not coincide with the HVAC system. The sound still happens even when the air conditioning is turned off.
- The sound is intermittent without any relation to road conditions (suggesting a rattle because of a rough road)
- The sound happens above 40mph
- You can hear it regardless of if you have no music, quiet music or loud music (Although when it is loud music, I presume it drowns it out so you cant hear it)
It seems to be coming from the interior, and the front. If I turn my head toward the passenger side, I can only hear it in my right ear (right-hand drive), suggesting it is coming from the dashboard.
Someone in another forum posted this sound clip, and it is 100% the exact same sound I am hearing.
I took it in for a service to have it looked at, and they stated the front number plate was loose and they tightened it, so it should "All be fixed". On the way home, i heard it again, and no way was it an exterior noise.
Has anyone else had this noise/issue, and if so did you find out what it was and did you get it fixed?
