Picked up my 2020 M2C Last wednesday, took my car out last night and had a spirited drive - nothing over the top, maybe hit max. 5500-6000rpm and when I got back I was showing the engine bay to my friend and noticed that there's a constant ticking sound coming from the engine.

I'm mechanically minded, though not up to date on BMW at all and wasn't sure if it was normal.

Car has 1200km, run in service scheduled for Monday.

Thanks in advance!
Congrats and welcome!

As far as ticking......to be honest, literally every car I've ever owned ticked after a drive. I figure it's just the car cooling itself down.

I imagine pretty much the only cars that don't tick after a drive are EV's?

Agreed; I didn't go past 5K until after my BIS.
