Do you guys hear the engine sound inside the car?
I noticed that when I'm inside the car at a stop light or just idling the car..and the sound system is off and the aircon is at the lowest speed I can hear the engine ticking sound..the sound a direct injection engine makes. Do you guys hear it too?

A little bit unrelated, but any other 11 535 owner have insanely loud road noises while on the highway? Its bad enough that even at relatively high volume, I cant hear anything from the stereo!
Anyone?

Unless you have an obvious fault as poorly aligned doors i bet its noise from the tires you hear. Probably from the tires themselves from the pattern, wear pattern or tire pressure. Do you have OE spec rims? A lower offset will transfer more noise to the cabin.

Tires with a V-shaped thread pattern will also generate a lot more noise. My drives door may be slightly off alignment, there is a little wind noise there and I will have them check it when it goes in for a service next month. |

If the run flats are third generation you shouldn't notice the difference though. |

When they go from "girlfriend" to "wife" it won't matter if the music is on or off.
