My 2005 does that now and then
but it's still a question mark. So unless something breaks I usually don't worry about it. But that's just me.

Seems to be normal. I assume you have the 3 litre I6 (3.0si).

VANOS on cold startup makes that noise sometimes. Once a the oil circulates into those parts the noise goes away. I wouldn't worry about it unless the noise doesn't go away after a few seconds.

I get that sometimes on my 3 Series sedan when cold. I asked my service advisor about it one day. He mentioned something to the fact that it is normal and has something to do with the values. I don't know whether or not that answer was legit, or he was just blowing smoke up my arse.

I noticed this exact same thing over the weekend! My 3.0 is brand new (500 miles) so it concerned me at first because I noticed it after the engine had been running for at least 5 minutes (so I thought it was fairly warm). After a liesurely 10-minute drive it was completely gone, so I assume it's normal. Glad you posted though...

Thanks for the replies. I am going to pop in to the dealer when my schedule gets a little less crazy and see what they say. If it is anything important I will post it here...
