Lots of fail in here. First, why would you let him drive your car? Second, how could he have not heard/seen the "e-brake warning/idrive chime?" or the lights in the dash? If it was barely up, it's not a big deal. if it was more engaged, then I think that could have contributed to your problem.

Anyway, if the sound you're hearing is consistent and increases in frequency as you speed up, it may be related to the Ebrake spring. If it sounds like the cowbell sound, search for the thread I started a while back (2/11) and see what some members said to do about that in that thread.
