dude here's my take firstly take a deep breath! ya didn't use premium gas did ya? so it could be ur >> tappets , cracked block , crack cam , crack in valve cover , water pump fan thingy cracked , bad plugs , woooh to much etc... etc... the list i got is huge! scrap it
hi i have a bmw 323i e46, days ago my bmw engine madea noise like your's. Mechanic said it might be dirt on the tappet valves or valves seat. Try changing the oil and oil filter. if you can also use cleaner gasoline additive, may help remove. Dirt or sludge in the oil, may hinder the movement of the valve that can not reach the top quickly, so the command of valves hit the valve instead of just pushing it. I hope it works for You.
I had the same problem as your car have. If the sound's occuring in front of the room, nearby radiator, you should replace your timing belt roller. It generally divided by 2. You should check those first.
One my 323i, I had two very large holes in my vacuum hose which caused my car to cut off at a stoplight that is over a hill. Also, starting the car was a hassle since i had to hold m,y foot on the gas to warm it off. Eventually I had to drive the car with the MAF sensor unplugged. It was sluggish but started. FINALLY I bought a vacuum hose from BMW for 25 dollars and had it repaired at an independent repair shop. Total cost was 50 dollars.

Don't listen to the scrap it for the crusher BMW haters. This car requires about $600 worth of work to get it back to a smooth pooch.
