Rant-my 3 part 2

So first off heres a background story

http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=88686

Well I took it in 9/26 got it back 10/26. It ended up being a bad intake diverter valve.

So as of last night, 10/30 it is back at the dealer. I got off the phone a few mins ago and it has a leak that they did not address over the month they had it in the dealer.

Turns out its a leaking oil cooler line.....wtf???? This is pretty damn annoying. Talk about bad luck.

So anyways...does anybody think I may have starved my turbos? caused any damage? I heard ticking over 4k rpms when somewhat cold.

hmm soo far...

IMO..the ticking is valve not turbo related.

I believe the valve ticking may have been due to low oil but now I'm also worried about the turbos

thoughts anybody?

There's quite a loud ticking from my engine at idle when cold but not over 4k. How low did the oil go - did you get any low oil warning? If not then I doubt it was the cause of your ticking noise

Yes it did get a low oil warning light two days before, I noticed the leak. The dealer told me it was normal for a qt of oil every 2-3k but I noticed the leak
