Engine knock
I have weird engine knock. And it's getting worse. Here is YouTube video: YouTube - bmw x5 4.4i engine noise after removing oil cap. The noise is Loud and same, just BEFORE oil cup was removed on video. That n62 engine. Anybody had that problem before?

You are not supposed to take the oil cap off when the engine is running.
