Hey man, if it is the same thing I had, try putting some techron or some other fuel system cleaner in with your next tank of gas. I did that and I haven't heard the sound since.

OK guys, apart from the valve lifters, I was advise by the mechs at local bimmer to check up on the oil pump too. Drop in oil pressure, does contribute to the clicking noise.
