[QUOTE="MeanStreak, post: 42327, member: 350"] Mine too. My ride is an E30 M40 318i 1990. When i got the car 2.5 years ago, found that the gearbox was leaking and it was almost empty. Got it refilled and was OK. After about 2 mths i cant engage 1st and 2nd gear. Got the gearbox repaired where some gears had to be changed. Was OK all the while until recently. Slight knocking noise but reduces when clutch is pressed. Now the noise is louder. My guess its the clutch bearing. Could it be that the gearbox have gone kaput due to the poor maintenance earlier? Or could it be solved by changing the clutch bearing? The last time i checked, used gearbox costs about RM900. Also, thinking of converting to M50b20 24V engine. What you'll think. Anyone experienced this before or any gearbox sifus out there who can help. All feedbacks are appreciated. Thanks [/QUOTE]
