Like I said, I've noticed the squeak for almost 4 years, had it serviced several times since then, everything is A-OK. I have an N55, btw.

Don't worry... my car also squeaks at idle.
Plus after a very long drive(say over an hour or so) on a very hot day... when the ac is on and I am driving under very little load... say 2nd gear at 2,700 rpms... when I lift off I get a wurring type sound. Its hard to describe. I think its the rear crankshaft seal.... that was more of a problem with 1M's... but it also effects the 135i's too.
Our cars make so many weird noises.... from the noisy direct injection at idle(very diesel like sounding) to the noise from the trans/clutch when switching the car off(I just keep my clutch pedal depressed, and whala no noise!) to the fax or inkjet machine noise when unlocking the car... really our cars make so many noises.... it just don't bother me anymore. The only thing that matters to me is the sweet noise coming from my PE and the incredible throttle response(& tq!) at very low revs. The 135i is truly a giant killer on back roads or the autobahn. I love this platform.
