Hi there, I am also hearing a swish-swish kind of sound but it's only after driving for about 30-40 kilometers from work or in the afternoon when standing still on an uphill. I don't get any warning messages or hear anything out of the ordinary inside the car only when standing next to the driving front tire. I don't hear anything but a normal diesel engine sound in the mornings and when idling the car after driving a short distance. I went to an RCI approved dealer and they are saying the timing chain issue was only prior 2011 BMW's. I got the 2012 F30 320 sportline and have about 186 000 km on the clock. I also changed my oil intervals from 15000km to 13000km
