Alternator whine or turbo whistle?
Hi all -
I haven't posted in awhile. I’m hoping someone can offer insight. My 35i M Sport makes a whining sound with quick stabs of the accelerator. It’s similar to alternator whine. It could be coming from the turbo but since this is my first turbo BMW I have no reference. Thanks in advance. |

It would be the wastegate opening up everytime you let your foot off the pedal or your x3 changes gears.
Now that you know... have fun with it
