My wife will NOT drive an automatic and we have a child and she drives about 17-18000 mile per year with trafiic all with the 6 speed manual. All excuses not getting an automatic other than laziness is out of the eqaution LOL. Actually our last 8 cars since I taught her stick 10 years ago have all been sticks. I told her I wont marry her unless she learns to drive one so she did

Too bad Im not cool enough to join or actually I dont have a enought money to join.

To be honest with you, I've been thinking about not being that tight for quite some time. I guess it's time for a change of the 'M3 only' rule. After all, we all enjoy the good ol' manual transmission, no matter if it's in a 330i, a X3, an M3 or an M1.

Best regards,
south

Manual Transmission Rattle Help!

I have done a search and cannot seem to find anything.

I have a 2008 m3 with Manual trans. When I am sitting at a light my transmission or clutch makes a ticking sound. When I depress the clutch pedal the sound goes away. Also when I put it in gear it goes away.

I took it to dealer ship and they said that they all do that but mine was just kind of loud.

What should I do. My car is still under warranty.

You should be able to find info by searching but it could be one of the following:

clutch release bearing
clutch unit / dual mass flywheel
gearbox

The noise and when occurs (as you described) is normal but it shouldn't be loud, like your wife would notice. If you experience any clutch judder or the gearchanges are not smooth, it's more likely to be the clutch unit / flywheel. If just the noise, one of the other two.
