Blowing noise(!) when changing gear on 318i and driver's side mirror whistle

Hello,

I have a '58 plate (UK) E90 LCI 318i SE.

When I change gear, unless I fully release the clutch before pressing the accelerator, there is a blowing noise coming from outside the car. It lasts a split second and sounds like a release of pressure.

I've not heard it on other cars but that doesn't mean it's not normal for an E90.

If anyone could let me know if they have a similar thing or have experienced the noise and had it fixed, I'd be most grateful.

I also have a noisy driver's side mirror. I have seen a number of posts on here but no solution seems to have been published. It's a whistle noise at pretty much any speed. occurs with the window up or down and stops if I fold in the driver mirror. Passenger side does not do it.

Again, any help greatly appreciated!

Many thanks!
