Hello fellow E46 lovers, A few days ago, I ran into the dreaded convertible top motor clicking when trying to latch all the way open or closed. I was afraid I would have to spend hundreds to fix this issue or just say screw it and drive with the top up until next year. However, I found a hack...

Good day! I hope everything finds you well, (brief history 2002 325ci) I've had the car for almost 2.5-3 years, got it at 122k miles, it is now at around 145k miles. When I got the car, I replaced spark plugs (no coils), did complete coolant system refresh, fluids(brake, tran, diff) and lots of...

So i have recently got a new master key for my car so i could lock and unclock from the remote while i wait for my new door lock to come. The problem i have is that SOMTIMES when i use the master key to start the car its clicks for 1-2 seconds then start right up. While the car is started the...

So this problem started a few weeks ago. When I turn the key, I hear one click and nothing else. I brought my 2 year old battery into Batteries Plus to get it tested and they said it was working like new. This lead me to believe that I have a bad starter. I understand that generally a bad...

My car is making a hard clicking on the lower drivers side engine area or so it seems. Honestly its making so many noises i cant figure out whats what. I have a video if i can figure out how to post https://youtu.be/o9zq_QXXg3g_a_

Hey everyone, Unfortunately my car started making a clicking noise today. It seems to be coming from the engine just in front of the driver's seat. The nose varies in speed with the throttle (while driving or while revving at a standstill). My best guess is that a pulley is causing this, as the...

So my car suddenly won't start today. I hear clicking sound when it tries to start then long humming sound. Also the ABS light flickers. Can someone help me diagnose the issue?

Hey fanatics! Long time lurker and reader, but I haven't posted much. I'm having an engine sound issue with my beloved 330i. Long story short, after initial start-up there is a persistent rattle or clicking sound coming from the engine. It appears to come on once the car has sufficiently...

So, last week, my drivers side vent window started opening by itself. I would close it and a few minutes later it would open back up again. Now, I'm hearing this annoying random clicking coming from my glovebox and occasionally from my vent window. I've pulled the relays in the glove box...

After being on for a while my driver's side starts clicking when it hits the corner of the windshield. Does anybody know what is causing this? The blades are only a few months old and it doesn't rain very much where I livs. I really need some help.

So yesterday I noticed this clicking noise when the engine is running... Video... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8guB7sLGoSU A few weeks ago I had screeching but I fixed that by replacing... Both Tensioners Both Pulleys Water Pump (Pulley Only w/ Aluminum) Both Belts ... then everything was...

I've tried searching the forums came across a few things that have SIMILAR problems but nothing the same....I have a 325ci 5spd. If I put my car into reverse and break nothing happens but right after driving backwards and breaking then putting it in 1st and going forward and break my car makes a...

So I have noticed this sound for a while now and I am not sure if it is normal. It's a slight rocking/clicking sound coming from the engine and the sound is more prevalent when i put my ears by the front passenger side wheel. It can only be heard outside of the car at idle. What do you guys...

I have a 2002 M3 6 speed and while driving, I can hear a clicking noise that goes faster as the car goes faster. Sounds like a card in the spoke of a bicycle that kids put on there bikes to make that clicking noise. It doesn't matter if the car is in gear or in neutral, it still makes this...

Well the first cold day and my 330i doesn't start. I turn the key and I get a whirring noise and the lights are flashing in sync with a clicking noise. The car ran perfectly the day prior with no symptoms of a failing battery. At this point though I'm not positive it is the battery as all the...
