I would go to you dealer and complain about the tapping sound and have them apply the fix and see if it resolves your issues. They will do all the doors and sunroof.

I think what he is trying to say is that the closing of the door didn't sound 'BMW'-like ... the doors should close with a nice solid sound, like they have lots of insulation in them and are well made. I am assuming the OP believes that as the drivers door sounds 'tinny' on closing he thinks there has been some remedial works done or a replacement door.

To PUZZ, I would suggets if you are thinking about buying it, you get the dealer to remove the door card and check that all is as it should be, and that there hasn't been any damage done. If it's a BMW dealer, then they should do this for you. Is the car CPO/AUC warranted?

For what it's worth, my X3 doors don't sound as well made as my E46 and do sound more tinny, but all the doors are the same - all equally as bad
