Hissing noise around 3.5K RPM
Hello,
I have M2 LCI with 1700 miles and I get faint hissing noise while accelerating and reaching 3500 RPM. I feel it’s coming out from center AC vents. I keep my AC on auto all time. It’s 2/18 build and I picked it up in April. Any ideas? Thanks. |

Pretty sure that's the turbo by your description. Easy way to tell would be to hard accelerate and then let off, does the sound become more prominent? That said, do you have ASD disabled? I would be very surprised if you can hear the turbo with ASD on.

Drove the car today with and without climate control and i heard it with climat control on. Even though I have the A/C button off, noise was still there. I lowered the fan to lowest setting but that didn’t help. It’s really faint but I hope it won’t get worse. No mods and ASD is not disabled.

I too occasionally hear a hissing noise, very slight one. I know what turbo sucking air sounds like and that's not it I'm fairly certain.
I suspect something in the front speaker resonating with exhaust or engine noise.

it's your turbo spooling up. This sound is desired by car enthusiasts and if you listen to mclarens or the like you'll hear it too.

Ive always heard the turbo spool as a 'whine' or 'whisltle' rather than a hiss..That being said, I always heard turbo whine in my 135i; but never in my M2 even though ASD is bypassed for some reason.

I guess anything's possible, but I bought the car 2 years ago with 25kkm (15k miles) on it, it's had that ever since I bought it, and it hasn't gotten any worse since. 60kkm on it now (37k miles). I also did track the car a few times
Also, the noise is so subtle that it's possible many people have it and just don't hear it. Almost no one who was in my car heard the noise, unless I specifically pointed it out.
