Hi guys, my e46 320i manual has had a terrible lurch when coming off and on the throttle. It’s worse in low gears but still there a bit in 4th and 5th. I also find that when trying to crawl forward in 1st gear, the car quite violently bounces forward and back when you so much as even touch the...

The car is a 99 323i with manual gearbox. I have a problem similar to this one. If the RPM are too low, the shifter just pops back into neutral. If I try to hold it in 3rd gear position, it feels like the gears might be grinding, so I let go and it pops back into neutral. If I increase the RPM...
