BTW, no baffle. With all this said, the timing control on these engines is much more complicated than the engine in my E38 and as such the timing tools might be a good idea. Also, if you need to replace the guides, you might as well replace the valve stem seals since you will be so far into the engine. I just did them on my E60 and it was a royal PITA, but stopped all engine oil consumption issues. I purchased the AGA tool for this purpose. Good luck. |

Check your water pump. Mine did the same thing, started as a slight tick then turned into a loud engine knock. Water pump had failed, it did not leak or give any other signs of failure. Good luck

I replaced the water pump last month with the metal impella, but I did check it again and it is good.

water pump or timing chain/guides noise
Good Day. Reading your thread, did you replace the water pump and noise went away, or did you also eventually replace the chain and guides?
I have the same noises with my 07 X5 e70 4.8i. Thanks |

Can't speak for the OP, but I had a similarish thread about engine noise and it was the WP. https://xoutpost.com/bmw-sav-forums/...ck-rattle.html

Old thread yes, but, anytime you hear knocking check the 4 bolts on the water pump pulley. If one or two of them are a little loose, it will knock. Sent from my iPhone using Xoutpost.com |
