A loud whining sound coming from a 2011 BMW 328i could indicate various issues like a faulty alternator or a problematic bearing. Although whining noises are commonly associated with timing belts, this car actually has a timing chain that operates differently and doesn't produce the same sound. To identify the source of the sound, listen closely and try to pinpoint where it's coming from. If you need to listen while driving, make sure to stay focused on the road and avoid distractions.
