Clanging Sound at slow speed
I have a 2008 335xi manual and for a little while I've had a weird issue where for example when I am slowly driving around a parking lot and push the clutch in after a few seconds there is a loud clang sound and it almost feels like the transmission falls out. Not problems other than that and I haven't been able to find any forums with the same issue. It does it when I slowly drive around and leave it in gear shortly after switching into first or second. Only does it once until I shift again. Anyone have any issue like this?

My car does the exact same thing. And my previous 323i never did it. Not to sure

My 2006 330Xi used to do this. Maybe 5mph, engage the clutch when approaching a stop sign or something while in a parking lot, and CLANG THUNK THUNK.
...but then nothing? Did it for many years and nothing ever came of it. It hasn't happened on my 335 yet. |

I used to have that feeling occasionally in my 535xi. Eventually the transfer case actuator failed and threw a code. Once replaced, the problem went away completely. In retrospect, I suspect it was an early symptom of a failing transfer case actuator.

Taking my XI into a shop this week to figure something similar out.
My issue is that between 15-50MPH, if I let of the throttle, I get this clunking. Could be the U Joint on the drive shaft.. |

They weren't able to reproduce the sound...
I raised the car back to stock suspension and the noise went away. However, I still get this clicking sound when turning to the right at low speeds off throttle |
