Bringing in car for warrantee work, question about "mods"
I bought a 2009 M3 about a month ago and it has about 40k on it. It's a MT and I removed the spring and added the ebay clutch stop. I'm hoping they don't make a big deal over it. Do you think they will?
The reasons I'm bringing it in -it seems like there is hesitation under 3k RPM (I'm aware of supposed low torque, but it seemed quicker when I first bought it). spark plugs were changed at 30k -I know the gearbox is notchy, but I occasionally feel/hear a metal clank if I don't "shift perfectly" (meaning gently nudge it into 2nd) -will they do the 240e update (if not, how can I "convince" them) Before anyone says I have read a lot about some of these issues but I paid a nice chunk of change for this car and it's under warrantee so I figure "why not get it checked". Thanks for any feedback! |

Don't worry about the clutch stop.
If they don't see any faults they will probably say the hesitation you feel is normal. I have taken mine in a few times for the second gear issues and they say its normal operation.
