T Thadeus1991 Member Streatham, London Apr 6, 2021 #2 To me this sounds exactly like my Z did a couple days back and that was the hydraulic lifters. Difficult to tell for sure though from a video...

Z Zulu4 Active member Lincolnshire Apr 7, 2021 #3 Sounds like the infamous but completely normal N52 tick. The BMW official procedure for this is to rev the engine for 3 minutes at 3000 RPM, if that doesn't work do it for longer (Seriously !!)
