[QUOTE="rpmnut, post: 462496, member: 20757"] Well guys, Quick update on the tapping noise on my 525i's M54. I sent the car to Ah Wai recently to change the sticking lifters which were causing the noise. All 24 came out, and new ones put in. When I took the car back the sound was gone......for all of two days. On the third day, I started the car in the morning and guess what??? The ticking noise was back! *#@! It sounds a bit like this: [video=youtube;krNxZwxDmz8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krNxZwxDmz8&feature=related[/video] It's so damn annoying!!!!! :P lol! Now my car's back at Ah Wai's to have another go at fixing it. Any of the sifu's here have idea/suggestion what could be causing the noise even with new lifters? [/QUOTE]
