I'm thinking it might be a proper bolt torquing issue.
Recall reading it was due to cost savings on building the engine, although I'm not fully informed on the subject to dispute or confirm that. All I know is this has been happening on the s55 since it was first in production. I recall them replacing something, maybe it was the timing chain, can't recall, but the issue still persists. For shame BMW, for shame.
