Not had this issue; trans in neutral and sound goes away would point to drivetrain/driveline issue...hard to say, could be anything from transmission to u-joint, bushing, etc.
Would seem car needs to be put on lift for diagnosis. |

I posted this awhile ago and still have the sound. Good news is that it likely means your trans is not likely to explode. Note my use of "likely"
I suspect it has something with the fluid level in the transmission. I am going to be changing my transmission fluid next week. I will update if it solves my issue or if it doesn't. https://x3.xbimmers.com/forums/showt...t=transmission

I changed my transmission oil roughly a month ago at a ZF certified mechanic. Transmission is acting great other than that. Last edited by dat1guy; 10-21-2019 at 08:13 AM.. |

Try turning A/C off, and wait a bit and see if it goes away. I get some whirring-like noise when mine is engaged. I can only hear it when driving slowly as other regular noises mask it once doing even city speeds. I ignore the noise. Just did a serpentine belt change and the compressor bearing seemed OK.
