Mine was doing the same, replace your timing chain tensioner, easiest thing I've done on this car yet, literally took me 10 minutes, and when you do the install, I recommend just uncompressing the cylinder yourself not doing the rev to 4K. As for the lifters making noise, all BMWs do it, but try a lighter oil as mentioned above.1990 S50 goodness.
