That's a very noisy S65 valve train ticking aka. the S65/S85 sewing machine noise.
You should run it with the original/recommended BMW ///M Twin Power Turbo 10W-60 Engine Oil.
That will make it much quieter (!)


thanks mate. would be great if this is just about oil ! but i will get a full oil change first to see how it goes.

i've been using the original 10w-60 but it's been at least 2000km, and over the 2000km, it burned like half a liter, which is normal i presume?
