E89 20i Whining noise on reverse

[katzer]

hi guys,

Just collected my 2012 e89 20i yesterday. On a 8 speed Zf gearbox. The car does an unusual whine while reversing. Is this normal?

I'm aware all cars will whine when reversing at high speeds but this is a more distinct high pitch whine even when not accelerating.

Thanks in advance!
