No havenāt seen/heard this on the (3) M1ās Iāve driven . But a few things:Noticing that when the car is idling in neutral with my hand on the shift knob, you can both hear and feel a faint metal on metal knocking and it's creeping me out. Anyone else experiencing this? No trouble shifting, what a joy this transmission is otherwise.
Classic case of ball envy if ever I heard one.we could just summon @EmCel to weigh in and settle the matter. She likes to drive with her hand on the Bullitt oversized white ball.
Even two or three would think so as well. That would constitute a consensus.Why don't you rest the hands on the steering wheel? One would think that such beast neads a short leash
Interesting, I haven't found anyone else report a similar issue to mine. Yeah mine does it just in 2nd, and only on throttle or when going into gear. The actual gear change is smooth and no grinding or anything. I am hesitant to take it to a dealer because I don't have any trustworthy ones around me.I hear the rocks/can rattle as well in 2nd, sometimes 1st...then it gets super smooth and rattle goes away in 3rd. 3500 miles right now.
I just chalk it up to a tight transmission and to drive it like I stole it?Interesting, I haven't found anyone else report a similar issue to mine.

Must be the loose nut behind the wheel.......No issues with shifter here, but the first 400 miles were a love hate relationship with the shifter that ended well thankfully. The first 400 were a bit rough.I haven't looked into it any further yet, being winter, and am hoping that the issue is just the loose cable in the transmission tunnel mentioned in an earlier post.
Seriously, sounds like something trivial though.Must be the loose nut behind the wheel.......No issues with shifter here, but the first 400 miles were a love hate relationship with the shifter that ended well thankfully. The first 400 were a bit rough.
well if you just can't abide, we'll take it off your hands.I haven't looked into it any further yet, being winter, and am hoping that the issue is just the loose cable in the transmission tunnel mentioned in an earlier post.
