E70 X5M ticking from under carriage

Cylenterok · 05-01-2019, 08:16 PM

Hello fellow e70 X5M owners

I really need some help. I've recently been hearing this ticking sound coming from the under carriage. It's not the typical engine sound that happens from the injectors. This sound only happens under power whether it's acceleration or deceleration. I thought it was the megan racing exhaust so I had it re welded and took the clamps off but that was not it. I have no idea what this is. I took some videos of the sounds while I'm driving in the Links below. Please someone lead me in the right direction here. Thank you.

Maybe jacking the car up and spin the wheels to see if anything is obstructing the driveline or wheels. Narrowing it down to which side will get you closer to the trouble. Only you can troubleshoot these things.
All we can say is some midget is playing marble underneath your car.
