Took the car in yesterday because the car was low on oil, someone pushed in my PDC sensor in the rear and the windshield whistles worse now at any speed over 100. It is ridiculously loud. I picked up the car this morning and they said they could not diagnose the problem because they would not drive it that fast.

So my question is how many have had this repaired by the dealer under warranty?

JB,
Same story with San Francisco BMW. If the noise can't be heard at 60 then they won't fix it. I don't know which dealership you take your car to in SD but try San Diego BMW. I always had good results with all my complaints.

I noticed a windshield whistle at at speeds above 70 MPH on my drive from Cincinnati to Chicago. I immediately took it into the dealer and they were able to pinpoint that it was coming from the top right side. They replaced the rubber seals and trim on that side and the problem stopped. The dealer I get my car serviced is Fields BMW in North Field IL
