Engine Knock @ Idle
I have a slight knock at idle straight after I have been driving hard, then the engine settles and it will kind of phase in and out while the engine idles. Same sound tappets make. Is this common?

E55
yes
it is a small air valve on drivers side that makes that noise. A small
thing that makes like the engine is knocking.
