I did a little research on the "active sound" feature that many BMWs have. Apparently on model years 2020 and up, you can go into I drive, and there is a category under "car", that says engine noise and then gives you several different options to select, ranging from reduced to sporty and several other possibilities.
The car we test drove was a used 2019 Z4, so what we may have been hearing was whatever is "piped" into the speakers. I actually found the noise in that car to be somewhat obtrusive. Loved how it handled and drove, but now hoping the sound we heard was this active sound feature.
Anyone played with that setting in I drive?
