If your local dealer is not much help contact BMW direct.
@Dape90, This is my 3rd 1 series and if I have to be honest the most disappointing one. Your description of the noise sounds serious. If you're local dealer is not helpful then BMW UK should be contacted ASAP. I would not have had my car seen to had I not contacted BMW UK. Best of luck and I will keep you posted.

Thank you for the advice.
I am a bit disappointed with my 1 series.
The sound from the engine took the shine off the ownership. Plus the way the active suspension works raising some short comings in the car. I should have gone for standard springs.
Apart from the sound system it's just boring. If it wasn't rear wheel drive then it would be horrible. Plus I probably won't have gone for it in the first place.
I will contact BMW in a week once work has calmed down a bit.
Keep us posted as to how you get on.
