My computer speakers are hot garbage so I couldn't really hear it that well, but N20s sound like diesel engines. If the noise is a high pitched whine that is RPM dependent, please take it to a BMW dealership as it may be the dreaded timing chain issue. I believe BMW extended the warranty on the N20/N26 to 7 years or 70,000 miles, so you're well within the warranty.
