Thanks for the quick reply. To me the sound is just like an exhaust leak from the exhaust manifold. It does not sound like an engine knock.

Test drove to verify complaint. Per SIB 64 18 05 Installed valves at end of both drains. Test drove again to verify noise no longer present.
Part 54-10-7-070-130."
Well it worked. No more noise. Not sure if this helps anyone else.
I will look up the part in BMW OEM

I took SIB 64 18 05 into the dealer, and they said it did not have anything to do with what I was describing (although when I close the center vents, or turn off the air, the noise almost completely goes away).
I may have to take it in when the field rep is there.
