Is this idling engine noise normal for this B58. Please help!!!!

I bought this 2017 540i M sport BMW yesterday with 70k miles. When the engine is idling it makes this ticking sound. Is this normal for B58 engines? At first I thought it might be a pulley or driving belt but the noise (as heard in the video) intensified when i removed the engine cover.

in the last 30 sec of the video you can hear a clicking noise. Might be ok noise but im not sure so i would appreciate if other g30 owners can confirm if this is ok or not.

Please help!!!!!

Thanks.

Not sure, I would take it to your local indy or BMW stealership. Please come back and let us know the outcome. Good luck and welcome to the forum.
