Hi folks! I just wanted to let you know that I also had the valve ticking issue in my 2006 325xi since new.
The BMW dealer said it was "normal and should go away with use. I agreed to monitor it and come back later. It did not get better, actually worsened. At 4800 miles took it back to the delaer and had all exhaust lifters replaced.
This is a chronich issue with e90 and a shame that BMW does not recalls it.
I also had oil level sensor twice and the tone wheel in front of the crankshaft got loose causing the position sensor to fail reading engine position. The car stalled at the highway and had to be towed to the delaer. After 30 days in the shop they called me said they had good and bad news.
The good was the car was fixed. The bad was they had my driver door damaged at their shop.
I got the car back two days ago with two doors poorly repainted.
I am very busy at work and did not have an opportunity to realy digest it yet.
I need to calm down and see what it takes to return this car to dealer for a full reinbursement.
What a nightmare!
