Rattling noise 06'325i
Hey guys, new to the form. I have a e90 325, it makes a weird rattling sound on idle. Has anyone encountered anything like this? I've had the car for about 12 years. Always been well maintained. Just got the valve cover gasket, oil pan gasket, oil filter housing gasket and motor mounts and transmission mounts all changed. It also has all new pulleys. I've tried pretty much everything to figure out where the noise is coming from. Any thoughts?

At least pop up the hood and listen from where the sound might be coming from.
Try to check for obvious things like missed or undone nuts and bolts, harnesses and plastic parts. Often mechanics forgot to properly tighten engine mounts, strut braces etc... Also, check the engine cover. |

My 2011 328i e91 was rattling at idle too and it was faulty Vanos bolts that should have been recalled but were not:
