Bro, I got no problem with road noise. Maybe can check your tyres whether inflated correctly. About wind noise, I had the problem of very loud wind noise (as if like a siren) at about 140kph but got it fixed at Auto Bavaria. Its something to do with wind coming in at the top of the front windscreen. They told me they got it fixed by filling up the gap there. Maybe you should get it done

bro, the wind noise that you mentioning I do fixed it... It is from the top of my passenger side windscreen, but now the problem I facing is when I drive 120km/h, there is wind sound come from side window/door, I also not too sure it come from where... but I know is both driver and passenger side...

I also what should I do next...

Any advise Pls...

I had similar wind noise problem on my e90 320d.sent it for service yesterday and they replaced both the driver and the front passenger rubber seal.
That should fix it.I tested earlier on and sped up to 200kmh.no sound of that whistling noise anymore.hehe.

Cheers.

I also suspect is the rubber and I request many times but they refuse to change the rubber for me... They say nothing to do with that... Zzz... Will try to request another time since they can't fix my problem...

Anyway, thx bro. Glad that you solve ur problem...^^

I went to AB KL... They let me try a X1 diesel, and the car is worse. When I reach there they just ask is it my unit is better than the X1 Diesel? They just say is the design of the car so they can't do anything for me... To me I find is ridiculous for a BMW to drive around 120km/h with such obvious wind noise but they say is normal... Zzz... I'm now trying to go after BMW Malaysia...

Hey guys, I just want to inquire how do you think X1 wind and road noise???

I'm now facing a problem that my X1 wind leaks very bad, I can hear the wind sound when I'm driving at less than 100km/h...

The sound is very loud when I drive 120KM/h... I try to fix this problem at Auto Bavaria twice but still the same... I'm going to send my car in to Auto Bavaria again next Monday... See what they say...

And the car is very bumpy even at highway...

Any sifu here have come across this problem???

Pls advise...

How you over come the road noise?? coming from the left window i think. U think the cheap door visor can help? But the drive for me is quite good and fun. Prefer x1 for going long distance with family compared to my f30. Feel its less bumpy and better view clearance.

Its a taller car for comfort. Try to get some ARBs first. Your car is new. Leave the ori suspension for the moment as you still got your warranty.
