Why does my BMW Z4 produce a ticking noise when accelerating?

The ticking noise you are hearing could be due to a problem with the valve lifters in your engine. These are responsible for opening and closing the valves for air and fuel intake. I would recommend taking your car to a mechanic to have them take a look and see if the valve lifters need to be replaced.

Another possible cause of the ticking noise could be a loose belt or pulley in the engine. Check to see if any of the belts are visibly worn or if any of the pulleys are loose. If so, have them replaced to see if that resolves the noise.
