you would need to pinpoint the noise... if you can find a long wall along a road, drive next to it with windows down and listen... have someone else outside listen to the car as you drive by...
based on what you have described so far, it could be the front drive-shafts, or the wheel bearings.. it could be the brakes, either front or back, with a dead pad hitting the bare metal...

any prior history? like, hitting a road debris? or balancing tires? sometimes, tire weights unglue and hit the brakes...

you did not indicate what ytour ride is, other than posting in the E53 forum... be more specific, more info we have, more idea we can throw during remote troubleshooting...
