This forum is very helpful ! X3 2007 owner here with the Tapping noise also .
My X3 was in the shop for a week they replaced all the lifters . A day after getting the car back it is now tapping worse then before. Once again back to the shop . I mentioned SB I 11 09 07 and I am waiting to hear back from the shop . The worse part is I just brought the BMW this month .
I do not want to hear this is normal ! From what I have read and heard , it seems a modified engine head needs to be installed .
I will let you know what happens when my X3 gets out of the shop .

I want to thank all the forum members for all your info .
