BMW and M Power Owners

Can anyone help identify a rattling noise that has started in the engine bay of my 330Ci. It's a 2006 automatic model with 126000 miles on it and just in the past month a rattling noise has started to appear when idling. It's more prominent when idling.

When in park the rattling/ticking noise is obvious but is more obvious when putting it in drive. If you take a look at this video you will hopefully hear what I mean.


Appreciate any advice on the matter.

Thanks

Sounds like something has come loose and is now vibrating. Or a bearing of some sort


Hard to say

Anyone had any experience with the Z4 M40i?

The American market version makes 400bhp due to the map on the same engine, but we only get 330ish, that seems like a lot of power for the money.
B58 so brilliant engine. Noise not so much. Never driven this model of Z4, but I've read it's more of a cruiser than a proper sports car. But I guess everything is getting bigger and more comfortable these days..
Apparently the Supra is good but that's a tin-top obviously. Happy to (not) help :D

do you obsess over the most inconsequential details this much in all other aspects of your life? It must be incredibly tiring
I'd thought he may be indirectly asking about having car play ... which was Diagro issue on his similar aged car where (albeit) non AUC had had an illicit wireless & firmware patch to try and support it.
