Hey guys,
Hope all are well?
So my 1999 e46 328i is creeping towards 325 000km and most recently I have noticed that the lifters are getting quite noisy (irritating tapping sound).
The car is serviced (Oil) every 7500km with Shell HX7 Oil.
So my question -
Does one need to remove the cover, coils, etc and get right in there and clean everything? OR
Would switching to a different oil have an effect? OR
Would it be better to add a cleaning agent or additive?
Look forward to receiving your advices.
