So I used the tape on the brackets for the back seats and it worked. I have tried this today and it has quieted my car even more so. I removed the privacy shade and folded the seats down.
I am wondering if it was the privacy shade to start with. |

They always make noise. I removed mine before I left the dealer at delivery. I’ve never had an SUV that didn’t have a noisy privacy shade so never use them.

I took my X5 into the dealership for exact same issue. I was hearing rattle noise on the right side (coming from rear I believe) at speed > 60 mph on a rough aggregated road only. I should have searched forum for this. I hope the dealership doesn't make things worse.

2019 G05 X5 with a rattle/rumble/knock from the right rear at low speed/over uneven road.
Looked around whole entire truck and couldn’t find anything loose whatsoever at all. Knocking on the panels doesn’t even result in anything loose sounding from within. Wrapped the right rear seat back latch with electrical tape and secured the right rear seatback de-latch button by wedging thin cardboard into the edge of same. Any updates anyone? Is there a fix for this yet? What's weird is that it can sort of be heard just by starting up the truck in very cold weather, without even moving / being in motion yet; just by starting it up. Thank you very much. |

I've been through this. They took my 2019 X5 5.0 back and I ordered a 2020 X5 M5.0. But it does the same. I'm not taking it into the dealer because the situation is just too stressful. All they do is ride around, listen to it and still not able to figure out what it is. It sounds like seat belts clicking or marbles clicking against each other.
BMW NA knows about the complaints but I've heard no solution. |

Had a rattle coming from the trunk area of my 2020 X5 on what was otherwise a flawless factory build. Thought it was the luggage compartment package cover moving around but it wasn't. Tracked it down to coming from the passenger side of the headliner right above the trunk. If I pressed on it it would make the same noise. I folded up a small piece of a microfiber towel and shoved it behind the headliner and it's now perfect. Maybe something to check?

Some thinks it related to the roll-up sunroof shade. Since the sunroof is larger, there has to be a kind of roll-up type window shade bar somewhere inside the headliner. Thanks for any additional information you can provide. I only have 700 miles on the car and i'm already ready to get rid of it and try another brand if this keeps happening. The dealership and I are not on speaking terms at the moment. |

For what it's worth, I had a 2012 Audi from 2012-2018, and it never once developed a rattle. Any time I heard something rattle in that car, it turned out to be something I had in the car with me (loose change, zipper on a jacket, etc.), and that car had low profile tires. A friend has an Audi SQ5 and said it is silent as well. I've had X2, X3, and X5 loaners, and all had rattles. I just wish BMW could get silent interiors like Audi.

We wore out the 2019 driving over bumps and rough roads. One day I just got sick of seeing the car looking like it had truly been used for off-roading and that's when the dealer agreed it was too much too soon and took it back. Now the same with the 2020. I only had 700 miles on it when it started.
Sometimes I believe we, by "we" I mean us BMW car lovers just don't put our feet down enough. These cars aren't cheap! This last one as equipped tipped well into the $100k mark. Plus, i'm not getting tax, license and fees back when I keep returning these cars. I'm just getting accommodations that are suppose to make up the difference. I'm getting close to saying "Enough is enough!" Time to do something bigger. Finally, I hope I don't receive another one of those smart ass responses where someone criticizes me for keep buying BMW's! It's about the cars, not about what decisions I make to buy the cars. |

The General Manager even admitted his Service Department was horrible. He said they “are not car guys” (his words). Even BMW NA suggested I take it elsewhere. Remember my 2016 F15? It is thought even by BMW NA the dealership screwed up that car and that led to its buyback. I also overheard someone in the Service Department talking shit about me because he has gotten in trouble for not addressing the issues for many months and allowing the problems to grow. The General Manager threatened to fire him for saying what he said about me, but I said “Don’t!” What happened recently was I had a cracked rear passenger window. I was planning to take the car somewhere else for what I was told was a simple repair. But the BMW dealer almost begged me into letting them try to regain my trust. So, I took the car there 4 days in a row, each time being told to bring it back the next day because they were unexpectedly crowded and wanted to be careful with my car. On the 4th day, I returned and was told the car would be ready at 3:00 PM. At 3:00 PM, the car was still sitting in the same place. So of course I was upset and took the car elsewhere. It was done in 2 hours. The General Manager called me later that day and said they can’t seem to satisfy me, as if it was my fault. But he later said that’s not what he meant. He did! I’m told him I interpreted that as not wanting me to ever return, and for him, that is a grave mistake! The bottom line is they are bad, just as “HE” said and all the giving me good deals on new cars ain’t fixing it! I’ve lost thousands in taxes and fees, and I bet they’ve lost nothing. So that is the truth of the matter, and I’m tired of it. |

I was doing some searching on CarPlay to see if it's AirPlay/allows for better audio. Upon mass clicking on the newtis site, there was a handful of documents on noise emanating from various areas in the vehicle. I linked below, but not sure if it addresses your problem. There are a couple "fixes" that BMW offers, but also other issues they recognize. May be some good info to help dealing with BMW/dealership. It links to the 40i, but you can backtrack to 50i if necessary.

I basically wrapped all the latches back there and the tailgate with electric tape and it really works! there are so many YouTube videos on this that it is likely a common issue and perhaps BMW should put some sort of soft-cover on these latches.
