E60 N54 knocking sound?

[lalorevz]

Hello!
I just get my first E60 535i N54 2010 for a very low price but it has some details

The most important right now is a knocking sound coming from the engine, the car can run without any problem but i prefer to stop it until i fix this issue

Im not very familiar with this engine, before this a had an F30 N28 2016 and i never had any problem with it, i know that most bmw have a knocking sound as normal but on the video it is too loud, i was thinking that maybe it can be the lifters? What do you think



(I couldnt attach the video but i upload it to youtube as a short with my same username lalorevz (i uploaded to vimeo but when i saw my post it dont show the video :/))

I hope somebody can help me with his experience
The next days i will take the valve cover off to check a little bit deeper, i will keep you updated!
Regards from Mexico!
