yeah, it seems sn issue on this engine, i really dunno y it might do that, while the 3.2 M104 has none of this. any way, once i start hearing the lifters knock all i have to do is slow down for a few min and the sound is gone.

Ironic is last time i heard the sound, i had reached my destination so i parked the car and turned it off, come back some 45 min later start the car and the darn lifters are still knocking the same, drove off and in a couple of miles the sounf was gone.
