not really no
Yes, when you had the camera under the hood.
Don't know what it is though.

You wanna hear clicking, come listen to mine.
Sounds like injectors to me.
Or valves tapping even? Definitely no knocking or bad sounds, from the video at least.
You definitely want to buy an extended warranty with one of these.
Sounds like typical Bosch direct injector noise.

But even that stops at 100K. I would be on my own after that and that is when the real trouble starts!
That's why these cars drop in value so much once the odo reads above 100K miles. Gotta pay to play at that point.

We opted for the 528 due to known issues with the 535 DI fuel system. Not as much fun, but great gas mileage and 100% reliable (so far). I don't know how much the 'x' adds in weight and performance penalty.
I would be leery of owning that generation of the 535 out of power train warranty.
Any out of warranty work is going to be expensive, and little things like the CD player and iDrive electronics caused recurring problems for some people that cost big $$$$.
Great driving cars though. They just feel right. And the torque of the turbo motor in the 535 is awesome for everyday driving.
