In another forum I've been told it may be the inside temperature sensor fan which is dirty and needs to be cleaned or replaced.
Does anybody know how to unscrew the panel and reach such a fan ?
If it is simple DIY task I'de like to do it myself (unsure about warranty for such parts)
Thanks in advance!

Nico,
Had the same noise on my 05 X5d. Was very irritating and started to drive me mad. Ended up tapping the lefthand side of the panel with a finger knuckle and it went away. Haven't heard it again.
