Weird whirring noise -- video inside
Hi all,
Have a 2011 528i Took my car to the dealership and they still couldn't figure out what's going on with some weird, generally lower end RPM, noises that my car is making. The noise has been going on for about a year and a half thus far, and generally more pronounced when it's colder outside, or when I first start up the car. Does anyone have any idea of what this could be? I'll use the responses from this thread to give the dealership some focus points. Appreciate it!

Well I just got Jaime pretty bad news from the dealer. They are going to replace .....the engine. They said it was one of the bearings internal to it and that it was causing premature wear. The resale value of my car just took a nosedive with that going onto the CarFax report. :-(

Very strange noise - clearly not normal...
It seems to make the noise when the transmission upshifts, so I'm inclined to say it's a transmission issue. What that is, however, is unknown to me! Good luck with it!
