BMW driver’s question
For the past few days, every time I start the vehicle on a cold engine, it makes strange sounds that are hard to locate. It seems to me that they are coming from the area around the pedals/under the steering wheel. The car fires up, for the first 5-6 seconds you hear this sound and everything returns to normal, the car runs properly, no loss of power, no shaking, everything is fine.

Driver’s question – SMG transmission in BMW
I have a problem with the first generation SMG five-speed transmission. The problem is the “waving” of revs when changing gears. In addition, when shifting from two to three you can hear a deafening knock coming from the transmission most mechanics say it is the suspension. I have already replaced everything and the problem remains.

I have a problem with the automatic transmission. When “D” mode is thrown in, the vehicle does not start at all. In warmer weather it starts and stops. When the car comes from 7/8 minutes on the fired engine, it starts normally.

BMW driver question
I would like to ask for an opinion on the loud firing of my car. When the engine is cold, immediately after firing up I can hear a loud crunching sound for 2-3 seconds, which immediately stops. After that, everything is OK. It runs beautifully, evenly and quietly. On a warm engine it rarely happens.
BMW driver question
I am after an engine swap from a BMW E36 to a BMW E46. There is a small problem with the electrical system and I don’t really know how to connect the cables to make it all work. The swap was supposedly done by mechanics and they made a horrible mess in the engine connection box to the car.
BMW driver question
I own a BMW 3. It drives very nicely with the current power, but I would still like to add 50 hp. How much does it cost to replace the engine and can you guys find me an engine or do I have to look on my own? What is the best engine to put in so that I don’t have to replace the exhaust, steering and other components? Please reply.
