I am having similar issue with my X3 20d. Rather its so loud you can not sit inside car even after you switch off engine. My car is with dealer for last one week and haven`t received any feedback.
Mine has done just 2500km.

Today I popped the bonnet with the engine running and noticed a pronounced vibration/shake on the engine, at least more than I would expect. It was also much noisier than my previous E83 model and I think noisier than when I picked the car up from new.
Has anyone had a similar experience? I was thinking maybe the timing is out as the engine sounds like the tappets are noisy (... Forgive my lack of knowledge if there is either no timing problem possible of the engine doesn't have tappets these days ;-) )
I'm going to take it to the dealer for them to have a look but interested in others views in case it's a problem that has been noticed by others.
Judging noise is subjective and I guess we get used to our cars and notice changes more easily. It may be me but it also feels like the car sounds more harsh when accelerating but that may just be me getting used to the automatic gearbox.
Thanks
