Hey all, new to ownership, loving it so far, been lurking and found it all very helpful.
New sound I couldn't find described anywhere. I have 2008 2.0l Z4. When it's warm I get what can only be described as a party whistle. Anyone have any clue?

I don’t know but it made me smile. Perhaps it’s just a happy car 
I’m guessing there’s a vacuum or air leak somewhere that when warm is expanding/softening just enough to let air through an resonate. Can you get someone to help pin down where in the engine bay it is?
