squeaky noise on downshift. 2019 m135i x-drive
Has anyone come across a situation where when changing from say 3rd to 2nd they hear a squeaky coming from the car as it goes from roughly 2k rpm to 2.5k rpm?

Yes mate - mine has started doing the same thing after BMW applied the "fix" for the wastegate rattle.
You can hear it here: https://bmwm135ixdriveownersforum.com BMW Australia is trying to tell me that this noise is normal operation for this vehicle and has advised that if I want to take things further to contact the Office of Fair Trading. Which I have now done. They are now saying that they will offer a lifetime warranty on the turbo however that doesn't solve the problem. It's such a shame because the car is awesome otherwise!

Turns out mine is coming from the exhaust valve.
Since the actuator repair I now have a squeak when turning the car off but I’m assuming this again is the exhaust. Only fix for the exhaust is a brand new exhaust so it’s a good excuse for me to get an aftermarket one |
