    2004 m54 3.0l weird idle noise

    I have a 2004 X3 I bought to flip and it's making a strange noise that my other X3 does not make. I replaced the chain tensioner and did a motor flush and did some injector cleaner and nothing. Any ideas?

    Check your DISA valve, the flapper may be broken.
