thanks for the thoughts guys. As I said the car itself is running great..just that rattling is annoying. I don't want to have break the seal again..so maybe next time around

My zhp started to rattle right after I bought it, with just 22k miles on it. The Beisan kit works wonders. It was nice and quiet after the install.
Well then let me rephrase to say that a ton of them do. Having someone say their engine rattles would warrant a "not surprised" response.
That doesn't appear to matter. This issue affects a number of BMW engines with VANOS. My E30 with the S50 swap rattled as well. My ZHP rattles. A friend of mine with a 330i pre-facelift rattles. There are videos on YouTube of E46 328i's rattling. It's an unfortunate mess of mysterious rattling that just doesn't belong on a BMW.
Agree, I just thought the 325 was relatively immune to that and the 4K dip as well.
I guess time will tell.
