A few issues, wondering if anyone else has the same

I have this as well and it was improved by loosening the exhaust and re-torquing the system. As I understand the headers are reverse flow and come very close to the firewall and the noise you are hearing is an exhaust "whine" at a specific RPM based upon flow.

PM me for more info.

Edit- my dealer had 3 other X5M's in the shop and the noises were similar by car.
