Knocking or tapping noise?

I’ve been trying to pinpoint what this noise is for a few months to no avail. (No I’m not talking about the noisy direct injection or noisy lifters) I’m talking about that tapping / knocking sound. I cannot be the only B58 owner that hears this lol. 40k miles, oil changed every 4-5k since new in case people ask. I’ve brought it in to BMW a few weeks back and of course it wasn’t making the noise during the inspection. Anybody else experience this, found what the issue was?

What to do

I just had to put my boy Vader down this afternoon and I am a mess. Over the last 10 years he was my emotional support animal whether I even knew it or not. He had started declining and I couldn’t watch him suffer or be in pain as much as I wanted to do whatever it took to keep him here with me. Since he was 6 weeks old and I was mid way through college he and I have been inseparable. Between watching eachother grow up, new states, countless failed relationships (he always knew before me lol) and everything in between. I’m taking this pretty hard and just looking for others who may be or have been in my shoes and what did you do that helped? Everything at home seems lonely and quiet now.

What are gas prices by you?

In my area of Chicago I’m paying anywhere between $6.50-$7 a gallon for 93. ECO mode has became my best friend lately 😂
