Flutter/ticking noise
Hey guys and girls
I have an issue that’s been going on for a few months now. A ticking noise has appeared at low rpm’s under load. It’s almost like a playing card in a bike wheel. It’s not so apparent when the car is cold, gets louder once warm. It’s fairly faint and isn’t noticeable with the windows up. It doesn’t occur when revving in neutral, only happens in low rpm’s with some load. Once it builds some boost the sound goes away. Performance is very good, just the noise. I tried the additional weight for the a/c line and it didn’t help. I’ve seen in some other threads that people with bm3 tunes may have similar sounds. I have the ots stage 1 tune. I’ve changed the oil and spark plugs which didn’t make any difference. Just wanted to get some opinions. I couldn’t capture it very well on video, but I did find one other video that sounds very much the same. |

Bump, any ideas? Hoping someone with bm3 ots map can chime in if they have the same noise. The guy that posted this video had the noise come up after flashing bm3 stage 2 and some other work. My car is totally stock besides the flash. Thanks for any input

A shop can do this for you. A BMW scan tool is usually required to determine if the wastegates are out of spec. Should be a pretty quick job.

It really does, I’ve been stuck between exhaust leak, wastegate fluttering, or some kind of catastrophic problem with the rotating assembly (timing chain/clutch problem/piston slap) It’s really great for my mental health
The one thing that makes me believe that it’s nothing major is that I’ve been hearing it for at least 5k miles with no change to the sound or the performance of the car. |

I have the same noise.
I didn't notice it until after the dealer did an oil change and spark plug service. Noise seems to go away after oil is warmed up. I also didn't notice any performance issues. |

Spoke with the guy that posted the video. He said that he had a bad injector, cyl 1. I did some datalogging, and nothing points to anything being out of the ordinary on any particular cylinder to my knowledge. I sent them to ptf support for them to look at. Will post back with their response.

Got a response from Halim at ptf. He said afr goes lean and my stft was adding a lot of extra fueling at medium load. I ran some liqui molly jectron, and although it seems to idle much smoother on cold starts and pull smoother in general, the sound is still there. I will be using a stethoscope to track down the noisy injector and replacing it with a new bosch unit.
