Flicks...I had all exhaust lifters, exhaust cam and cam follower replaced. Occasionally I think I hear the sound, but it's not nearly as loud as before the fix so I do not know if it is the same. The sound is also coming from a different part of the car...
If you saw the Feb '06 'Automobile' magazine, you will see a blurb about their long-term test drive E90 being in the shop...because of a drive train ticking noise.
