Hi- i am new to the site. i have an '06 330i sedan that i am about to turn in for an '04 e46 m3 coupe 6spd. it is flawless with 15800 miles. the only concern is this rattle when downshifting/coming to a stop in 1st or 2nd. my dealer says this is pretty normal, and he has it on his and that there is nothing to fix. i have read here and elsewhere that this due to "lightweight" design, true? thanks for any input.
