Wind noise

Guys when I get up to around 100mph I get wind noise from the driver side window on my 435d coupe do you think I could get this looked at under warranty.

Going to be a bit tricky getting a BMW mechanic to test drive it to validate your claim.

I get wind noise at 150mph but I don't think it it's coming from the window.

You wear plugs when riding? I like the sound of the dual Akropovics too much to wear those damn things!

Haha I have tinnitus from years of working too close to speakers when I used to do door work..... and once fired a starters pistol in a closed room!

It doesn't affect my enjoyment ?

Everytime I drive at 100mph or so blue lights appear in the rear view mirror yet they seem to fade out when you reach 150 so not sure what causes that?
