my X5 is quite a bit louder than the 5 i got as a loaner...

mine is pretty quite. I do hear some noise above 70 that I assume is from the drivers side mirror.

Mine is much quieter than my old X5.....

my rear doors need a really hard push too close shut, looks like they need adjusting if that's possible? is that why i'm hearing excess wind noise??

I noticed my 2005 4.8is handled a lot tighter on windy days at 80mph. My E70 4.8 seems to move more with the wind when on the interstate.

The new X5 has more surface area for the wind to move it around.
My X5 is pretty quiet at 80 MPH. There is some minimal noise at high speeds which probably comes from the large exterior mirrors, all in all it's a quiet vehicle.

My E70 is quiet as well even at speed higher than 80 mph.
