My N54 started making a distinct metallic ticking sound that's not the injector tick.

Narrowed it down to either boost solenoids or lifter tick.

Only happens after sustained highway driving of over 20-30 minutes, and goes away when blipping throttle.

Might go to a higher weight oil next change, and check on boost targets
