M2 ticking noise opening door
My car makes this ticking noise after it's been sitting for a long time (overnight). I've noticed this since new, but didn't think much of it until I saw this thread:
http://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1389358 Here's a video of my car. Sorry for the low light, in my garage. Anyone else have this? |

My 17' M2 (Pre-LCI) definitely doesn't make this noise after sitting for awhile. I actually just went out to the garage to verify that it doesn't as well. The car has been parked since early December.
Comparing your video to those posted in the F80 thread... they sound pretty much identical and I wouldn't be surprised if its the exact same issue. Post #45 in that thread even says the same part number is used on the N55/S55. It doesn't seem to cause a performance issue per the comments in the thread, but it also shouldn't be making that noise lol. If I were you I'd take the video in to your SA and explain the situation to them!

I believe it's the fuel pump priming up. Mine does the same.

Do you let your car sit for more than a day? Mine only clicks if I don't touch it for a day or so. Mine will repeat I think 3 or 4 times (of opening the door) then it stops, or I turn the engine on. Before the video I posted, I have another one with the hood closed and pressing "unlock" on my fob and it clicked. Open the hood, let it stop and re-opened the door to recreate the clicking.

48 hours untouched? Seems even if I unlock /open a door, the "counter" reset. I have an appointment this Thursday, told them to leave it alone for at least 24 hours if they want to replicate it themselves... With my luck, nothing will happen lol.

Dropped it off this AM. The service guys did say it seems 'loud' but the car does do a lot of "wake up stuff".
They charged me $30 for a loaner though. Is that normal? I've never had to pay for a loaner at previous dealerships when getting my car serviced. |

It'll stop after about 40 seconds or if I turn car on. Mine will continue after closing the door. It'll start again if I open the door if I don't start the engine.. Up to 3 or 4 times, then it won't make any noise

My car sits for weeks at a time. I'm gonna go check this out tomorrow to see if I can replicate the noise.

Checked this morning. No clicks or ticks when I opened the door. She's sat for a little over a month now, and I do leave everything unlocked

Well not a good update.
Since I have my car coded (asd off) they will not investigate further until it's brought back to stock. They want $150 to re-program it w/ a clause "if anything goes wrong with re-programming, I'm liable for fixes." They won't touch it with it being coded. I have the car back and it's ticked once or twice on me the past 2 weeks. Doing more research, seems it's not that rare for the ticking. Some got their valvtronic motors replaced and problem went away. One got his replaced and ticking came back. Many says it's normal. Noticed in a volvo forums, some of their cars tick and that's considered normal for them lol. Tempted to live with it as I'd rather hear this every one in a while than ASD every day. But I'm certain my car is now "flagged" with coding being done and they might not want to do future warranty work? |
