Hey guys. I was wondering if it's normal for the 535i to have sort of "noisy" tuppets? I can hear the tuppets from either inside the car or outside. They're not noisy only when the engine is cold. They're noisy even when the car has been driven and it's just idling. I was wondering if that's normal or should I take it in to BMW and have them check it out? I only have 300 miles on the car so far and it sounds like the car is 100k miles old (with the noisy tuppets).
