BMW e70 X5 Noisy Cabin

First introduced in the United States in 2007, the mid-sized BMW e70 X5 is a luxury crossover SUV first. The e53 X5 was replaced by the e70 X5 with a lot of upgrades. As standard options, the e70 X5 has an automatic transmission, double wishbone suspension, the iDrive system, and third-row seating. While e70 X5 was replaced by the BMW F15 X5 in 2014, there are many of these sporty vehicles still on the roads today. One of the issues X5 owners have experienced is cabin noise, specifically, they notice a clicking noise in the vents and a rattling noise throughout the cabin.
The noises the owners hear in the vents are commonly described as popping or clicking that comes from one side or both sides of the dashboard. Typically, the majority of the owners complain about this issue when the car is in warmer climates during the summer months, or when the air conditioning is running on very hot days. One reason this could be happening is the difference between the outside air temperature and the temperature of the air moving through the vents inside the car. A trained BMW mechanic at Bavarian RennSport can diagnose the popping and clicking noises in your X5.
Some of the rattling noises X5 owners have experienced is squeaking or rattling that occurs most often when the car is driven at lower speeds (less than 25 mph) or on bumpy roads. Some of the drivers say the rattling noise comes from the back of the vehicle, while others say it is coming from the pillars that the door latches to when they are closed. Cabin rattles can be eliminated by having us lube or replace the door seals in your X5. Some owners try to use Clear Teflon tape over the door frames to help muffle the noise. While you may be able to repair it yourself, the best course of action is to contact a professional to ensure something more serious isn’t going on. Our experience will be invaluable in determining where the sounds are coming from and we will help you achieve a quick and long-lasting resolution.
