So are these things load?

I�m experiencing alot of noice from the engine when driving ticking noise or rattling kind,
it�s mostly under 4k and goes away above that,

I was wondering how exspensive the lifters are to replace

I checked and this is coming from under the valve cover,
how much are replacement lifters over there?

Thanks

I have had a loud intermittent ticking noise on both of the two 318is's I have owned. Usually worse when cold. You can either put up with it or replace all 16 lifters. Not sure on cost.

Could you call your dealer for me?

Online you are looking at $16-$20 per lifter. It is a big job to replace them, but it is doable with care & patience.

I bet lifters could be done in under an hour. I've had my cams in and out 4 times now though :cool:
