2016 GLE 350 noise at 1500 rpm's

An annoying whirling or humming from the back when accelerating at around 1500 rpm's. A tech road with me and agreed it was there and annoying. Said to bring in for service. Service then said it was a harmonic exhaust and same as two other 2016 GLE's. Nothing they could do. Has anyone else found this noise and any results with Mercedes to correct?

Is this a diesel?

I have the same exhaust noise on my GLE 350. Starts at 1500 rpm and not as noticeable at higher rpms.


I found a thread someone posted on another forum with the same complaint and he said they replaced his exhaust system with one from a ML.


Do a Google search on '2016 GLE loud exhaust' and it's the first link.

If you guys are talking about a clattering / rattle between 1500 and 2300 RPM, I have that too - but just chalked it up to diesel clatter.
