Also, as time goes on, I am starting to experience a significant differential or transmission clunking sound when letting go of the throttle in traffic. My E46 m3 with SMG transmission used to sound like this, but I only have 6,000 miles on this M2.


Curious to hear if anyone else has these issues?
I have the steering noise issue. Turn the wheel left to right and there is a obvious loud clicking noise.

It's at the dealer now. The shop foreman said that there is a BMW bulletin for this problem. The remedy is a shim behind the wheel bearings, I think....Something like that. But they did know about it.

Also having the M-Performance exhaust vibration looked at, in addition to the rear speaker deck that is rattling something fierce.

Great car but it seems to be coming "unglued" over time.....

I'll report back after getting car back from the dealer.
