But actually I can hear like you said 2 different kind of noises on my S65.

1- The loud single clunk noise .
2- The rattle clunk noise (sometimes 3-4-5 shorter rattle noises in 2 sec.)

I'm sure the base-cause of the noise from nr 1 + 2 are the same and I think it's *the amount* of the force that is behind it...

Video # 1 shows you the loud single clunk noise .
Video # 2 shows you the rattle clunk noise => video from #16 page 1 in this thread => http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=996069
And like I said above I have both => #1 + # 2

I'm 100% sure if I replaced the Vanos gears the noise would be gone , but deep pockets are required !
I know also this noise can't be healthy for our S65's , on the other hand I know a lot people over the world and they have this noise for 5-6 years ...

Note : Videos are examples and not my car .

Thanks for sharing my video. This is my car and after 6 years - 78k miles run strong, no issues. Happens on occassion after long sitting periods. NORMAL.
