·I bought a 2006 6i in May 2006 and now it's making a moderately loud ticking noise at idle. I searched, but didn't see many threads of owners complaining about the 6i ticking.
The ticking is only there at idle, once the gas is pressed, the ticking goes away. The car also only ticks if the engine is idling in drive IE at a stop light. If I move the shifter into neutral or park, the noise goes away. The dealer says it's normal, but since I only saw a couple of threads about ticking from a 6i, I'm wondering if it's really "normal".
My definition of moderately loud, everyone in the car can hear it as long as the radio volume isn't above 4.
Is that normal, or should I take it to another dealer?
Thanks
