Hey Guys,
Haven't had my new E30 for too long but I seem to have come across my first *necessary* repair :p
Today when I was leaving the mall, I started my car, went in first and heard this rattling sound coming from the centre console/shifter area. It would become more rapid and louder the faster i went, and if I go into neutral then it will begin settling. I took out my shift boot and saw what seemed to be the driveshaft kind of rattling around. After some searching it seems that I may need to replace a bearing, U joint or the whole driveshaft ? the Only thing is.. this car is S52 swapped and the previous owner had a M3 E36 driveshaft put in ( I think)
Any ideas on what specifically may need fixing/replacing, and which car I should get the part from ?
Ill post a video to help show the problem
Thanks !
