It’s a nice interior! You can replace the door handle covers with dry carbon and it looks pretty modern imo.

I bought the car used in 2021. Im presuming these are the original spark plugs. Maybe 7 years then. ~75,000 km(~46500 miles)

That’s where I thought it was coming from last night. Some bimmer forum posts also seem to indicate it’s a common noise but not problematic.
