Default M50 engine noise

I have a 2006 M50. The engine seems noisy to me. It has a clattering sound that is more noticeable around the mid rpm range. I was told by two different dealerships that these engines are noisy. Is everybodys noisy that way or do I have a problem? It sounds like maybe the valves need adjusted. Not sure. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

If the noise is noticably taking away from your ride, you probably need a valve adjustment. I don't notice the noise of the engine unless I pay special attention to clue in.


Welcome to the forum BTW. Good site to share info. Good M50 following here. Hope you stick around and participate.
