Engine noise

Well after waiting a long 2 months to get my 2011 535i xdrive, I don't get to enjoy it. Been at the dealership longer than I have had it. There is a "knocking" sound coming from the engine area and they have no idea what it is. Drive me crazy because it is somewhat loud. Just a constant tap-tap-tap. Speeds up a little when I give it gas but constantly there. Factory rep from BMW at dealership but still cant figure it out after 4 days told me they would replace high pressure fuel pump. Also the auto headlights come on even when it's high noon. I know i read somewhere on a post that others are having same problem. UG! Drives me crazy!!!
