 My new baby



Hi guys,
I have been on this forum for awhile since I ordered my car. My dealer just called me and told me that it's in. A beautifull 530Xi black with tan, auto, nav, sat radio, comfort seats, etc. I went to see my baby and started the car. The car was not prepped yet. I hear a slight valve ticking. Sounds like one valve. The manager said not to worry, the car needs to be prepped and it will be fine. I had many new cars before but never heard a ticking valve on a new engine before. Should I worry?
I'll post some pictures after I p'up my car next Friday

Don't worry, its probably the sound of the valvetronic doing its thing. You will love your car! Welcome aboard! Looking forward to those pictures!

make sure your dealer checks it out.... Had a problem with a noise before 2 of my ignition coils went out and different times... enjoy your car

Black and Tan. Sounds like a very nice combination. The sound you here is probably nothing serious, but it's always a good idea to have it checked out, if not at least to ease your worries. Best wishes with your new bimmer!

Black and Tan. Harp's Lager and Guinness. Yes, a very nice combo.
