Whistling X5 airbox problem-seeking help

My engine whistles at 1600-2000 rpm. When I have the windows down it drives me nuts. :

When I took it to the dealer the service advisor told me that they all do that and proceeded to take me for a drive in a new 2004 which also whistled!!

To me it is unacceptable that BMW engineers have allowed one of their models to be built and delivered to with a designed in annoying whistle that comes from the air filter box.

Is anyone else bothered by this defect?

Does anyone have a fix for this?

Thanks!!
