Steering wheel whistles!!

Noor · 08-10-2012, 12:53 PM

Guys I pay attention to every little single detail in the car and it could a normal thing! I just need your help, i was parking the car with no music on so it was very quiet that you can hear anything, so I heard a little whistling noise coming from the steering wheel followed by a soft noise that I can't explain as if its an electronic noise or something.... is it normal or not? and what could it be i only have 2700 KM on my car... its a 328i

Checked it again and the sound is internal it sounds like a squeaking sound when you turn it right or left

I would definitely get that checked out, I know the steering system is different from the car I have now but the same thing happened to me after having a little fun in the snow lol and it has been making a whistling sound ever since. Definitely not normal for a brand new car though.
