Odd Static/Rattle/Vibration from Interior Cabin

DARKMTTR · 05-09-2019, 06:47 AM

Hey guys,
I have a 2018 X1 which is nearing ~30,000kms. Just recently I started noticing a noise coming from the upper part of the driver side B-Pillar (making it extra annoying since it is at ear level). The sound is similar to static or very low vibrations and occurs each time I ride on the slightest of uneven pavement. I've researched this issue and have noticed its common on a bunch of other F-series BMW's, but has anyone with an F48 experienced before? If so, is there a DIY-Solution? It doesn't seem like the solutions on other threads have worked for me.

I also recently did a full interior clean so I know its not lose objects in the cabin.

Any help is appreciated!

TIA

For my x1, the door window seals had to be replaced (all four of them, under warranty at 10k km). It was making a hell lot of noise during turns and bumps. The replacement solved it.
