The only "noise" I thought was "different" when I first drove the car was the whine when accelerating hard. After driving and being in the car more I LOVE the sound and it's purpose! Just never had it in another car before. Almost like a DTM car from inside winding out the engine and tranny! Love it!

rattling sound from left door
I've been dealing with an annoying rattling sound coming from my left door on my 2012 m3. I recently purchased the car in July and had to take the car to the dealership twice for the problem.
The head foreman said my car has a manufacturer defect on the door which needs to be fixed with some type of machine. The dealership informed BMW NA and bmw NA refuses to correct the problem. Thus, I started a claim on the car with BMW NA and told them I want out of the car. I gave BMW NA a chance to come out to the dealership to check out the car. Initially they said they would come out but then the day before they were scheduled to come out, they let me know it's not a major issue and told me to "DEAL WITH IT" BMW NA is ridiculous, can't believe they would treat repeat customers like this. Whats the point of having a warranty if they aren't going to fix defects on cars? If they don't do anything, they'll definitely be hearing from my lawyers soon on this issue. |

What about the clicking sound coming from the front wheels during hard cornering at speed?
I can hear it only with windows down.

I'm taking mine to the dealer this week for a weird resonating sound (similar to a bad power steering pump) when the engine is between 1400 and 1900 RPM in all gears. I'm hoping it's just a loose heat shield or something.
I don't have the DCT clunk when going to neutral, or any rattles.

Hi guys, I had several noises that might not be normal, just wanted to get your inputs.
1- clicking noise when stationary in 1st gear and i press on the trottle. feels as if the gear is engaging 2- clunk sound when stationary and engage neutral. 3- exhaust buzzing sometimes when driving slow in 1st and 2nd gear at ~2000 rpm 4- when stationary, sometimes if i turn steering wheel all the way around and the back it puts out a squeaky sound please let me know what you think. Thank you. Car 2012 M3 alpine white/ extended fox red/ carbon fiber. |

It took me a year to finally getting used to all the weird noises that my M3 makes. I figure it's just part of owning a sports car. Tolerances are tighter and it's designed for performance first, comfort second.

Whirring at low rpm/idle from the accessories and front cover (just like every BMW ever)
Valvetrain noise at idle (32 valves springs lifters cam lobes, 4 vanos actuators, half a dozen chains whizzing around) Clutch throwout bearing/flywheel noise Gear whine 2000rpm drone in 5th gear Hissing after running the AC and parking the car Clinking from brakes after parking the car with hot brakes Loud as hell on startup Chuffle at wide throttle openings at lower rpm from the intake Rear tire squealing Police sirens

I have a weird sound coming from what seems to be the drivers side dash when parked. Sounds like there's a squirrel running around in the dash. Best way I could think to describe it. Anyone else have this sound?

it is a squirrel.
seriously,it could be your cooling fan still running,which should be normal if the car's still hot.it's often hard to pinpoint where noises come from. |
