I remember that one now that you mentioned it, good to know they seem to keep going on fine despite the heavy clank/clunk! lol.
My M3's always been a garage queen, I couldn't really afford to daily it, hence having a 330d too. Also, I tend to not to drive at all from Monday to Thursday night .
It's weird how the clunk doesn't always happen though, I only drove it just the week before!
been at it for 7 years on between 5W50 and 15w50. i live in socal, my garage is warm at 6am. It's also my daily. every. day.
