Noisy X1 xDrive 23d

My wife has had her X1 for two months now, done around 1200km. Every time I drive it I am annoyed by the noisy diesel. I have driven many diesels, BMW, Audi, Peugeot, but none has been as noisy as this. In particular, there is a very raspy noise when accelerating even mildly. BMW claim there is nothing wrong, but I find it quite irritating. could it simply be a lack of refinement with these low end models?

I am curious about other's thoughts on this engine in the X1.
