Sounds like fly wheel to me, pm Gizmo.

The flywheel will be noisy all the time.

Feeling up to it pull a gearbox this weekend :fencelook:

It's not worth the effort just to replace the thrust bearing. I would do the clutch as well. :dunno:

 

[Mastertek]

It definitely sounds like the flywheel. I replaced a couple for the same noise

Let's wait until the physical inspection has been done :thumbs:

It's the release bearing in the box.
My ex's e46 320d does the same thing, has done it for years and it hasn't given any issues, just sounds horrid.

Agree with Morne. You would also feel a vibration if its the flywheel, especially if its dual mass.
Replace the thrust bearing and you'll be sorted.

Will be taking the Car in for a Opinion and hope for the best. :fencelook:

Then i will decide what to do.

 

[SP33DYV]

I really hope for your sake it's not the flywheel and just the thrust bearing. The dual mass flywheels are expensive.

Brand new they seem to go for about 3 .5 K :fencelook:

That is still cheaper than a flywheel.
