Ok, so I took my 2006 325i to Zimbrick so they could diagnose a tick I was hearing in my engine (N52). They called be back today and confirmed that it was my outlet lifter making the ticking. I am sure some of you are aware that this is a known issue with some of the N52 engines. SO they tell me that it will cost $2134 to replace the lifters. I said screw that noise. I requested a list of the parts they want to replace which they provided. I can get the parts for $336. Has anyone here worked on lifters or at least the top half of the engine on the newer BMW's? I am pretty handy and mechanically inclined so I think, with some help, I should be able to do this. Please respond back. Thanks!!
