X5 is still whistling!
EDIT: traded in my 3.0i for 4.8is. Problem fixed
 Below is the original post I started regarding a whistling sound my X5 makes when driving at low rpm's and pressing on the accelerator. It's similar to the whine of a supercharger, but annoying.  http://www.xoutpost.com/x5-e53-forum/...stling-x5.html Based on the feedback from fellow members, the dealer tried the following... 1) Replaced DISA valve - no change, replaced w/original part. 2) Replaced Idle Air Actuator - no change, replaced w/ original part 3) Replaced the throttle body - minimal change if any, kept new throttle body 4) Checked air filter box for any leaks - none found Service manager claims the whistling is due to the vehicles age. 2003 X5 w/ 48K  He and the tech drove a newer X5 and whistling was not there. Then they drove a '03 w/similar mileage and whistling was detected. Three of my co-workers also drive X5's. Two do not have the whistle and one does.  Does anyone have another idea?
