[QUOTE="1996E36328i, post: 203384, member: 2078"] If its not a continous sound, check the brake pads. The brake pads on the piston side has got a 'spring' that keeps the pads on the piston. If that spring is loose or broken, everytime u depress the brakes, that tik tak sound is created as the piston contacts the brake pad backing plate. If the spring is tight, there is no or very little freeplay/gap between the brake pads backing plate and the piston caliper. Continous sound, it can be from the transmission or rear differential. Maybe the long shaft. [/QUOTE]
