[QUOTE="tank34, post: 3917, member: 1332"] Hey Guyz, driving a 2.5 year old 325i E46 and have had this problem for some time now. Sent to AB and their diagnostics showed nothing wrong with car. Problem is when car is on low gear, say in a car park, whilst driving looking for a spot. A low straining sound can be heard, this "sound" goes away if you finally pick up speed and go into 3rd and then 4th gear. Sometimes if I'm stuck in traffic, say my recent drive to Ipoh during the CNY break, the car just "strains" away on low gear and rev.Anyone experience this? It does not happen all the time, only intermittently, that's why I've been able to "spot" the difference? The problem used to be more acute some while back, sent to AB Glenmarie and they only added more engine oil. Problem seem to go away but it's back again. Car was also recently sent for service, about 6 weeks ago.HELP!!!! [/QUOTE]
