Don't think the SA is correct in his description. Never heard wind noise "caused" by panel rubbing on plastic. That makes absolutely no sense. The noise most of us are experiencing is definitely caused by airflow across, between or through some body components/parts and it is manifested by speed- in my case, when I exceed 35-40 mph and get incrementally louder as speed increases. That is not two pieces of material rubbing against each other. Last edited by Orion4; 03-31-2018 at 11:46 AM.. Reason: additional information |

After multiple visits to service center I was able to find a service technician who acknowledged the existence of this issue and looked in to it.
He has isolated the problem to the roof trim. Supposed to get it replaced in couple weeks. Not very optimistic though..will update in couple weeks. |

Well, whistling noise was not due to roof trim. They took couple more days to diagnose the issue...and they finally did.
So, the noise was attributed to defective installation of windshield during manufacturing. They ordered some new parts and reinstalled windshield and now the whistling noise is completely gone. BMW must step up their manufacturing standards. This is the second issue I have faced (faced issues with exhaust before) due to defective manufacturing process. |

I was getting wind noise which seemed to be coming from the top of the windscreen area on motorways.
I thought it was the windscreen seal that runs across the top of the windscreen. I tried re-applying the seal but it didn't work. I noticed that the roof rack panel moves slightly back and forth. So I re-adjusted it so it was flush with the roof panel and made sure the windscreen side trim was flush and the rubber was overlapping the roof rack trim. I'm not sure if it was out of position before but the wind noise seems to have gone. Only noise now is from the door mirrors and tyres. |

ok after some testing I have found another problem with our cars and wind noise.... the bmw rubber seal that goes around the frame of the door and seals it to the body when closed is 1/8 inch to small. it never touches the frame of the car.. So any road noise, tires, wind ect can easily get into the cabin of the car.. This fix might be a bit harder to fix as I have to source out a supply company that makes the rubber seals to go around car doors like this. I can then just order a length and attact to my car.. easier said than done I am thinking....
