buzzing noise

hi everyone...i was finally able to exactly pinpoint the area of the noise..i had a buzzing/humming noise in the car that appeared to be coming from the dash and on the outside of the car near the rear left wheel well.....i thought it was the fuel pump..brought to the dealer and they confirmed it was fuel pump and replaced it...noise is much better but yesterday i heard that the noise is coming from under rear seat...that is where fuel pump is but it was replaced..is there anything else under the seat that could be producing the noise...thanks rob

I think the compressor is right behind the rear seat.

I think the cats are under/in front of the front passengers. So, probably not from them. BTW ... I didn't think cats made any noise.

I have a 2006 X5 3.0i with 23,500 miles on it. I am also getting a buzzing/static noise from under the R/R side. Sounds like it is coming from directly behind the R/R wheel.

Did you ever find a fix? I'll post up a youtube video in a bit.

It might be coming from the L/R...
