[QUOTE="B33mEr, post: 491980, member: 13609"] Afternoon bro ... the usual symptoms would be clutch slippage (high rpm but the car doesn't move) and could be juddering when moving from standstill which may indicate a worn out clutch. What's the current mileage on the E46 bro? Stock clutch is designed for 100k miles. Have the previous owner change the clutch before? Another possible reason for the vibrations could be that the throw out bearing need to be replaced or re-greased according to the info. There's a few SMG including ///M's owners that experiencing juddering when moving from standstill on 1st or 2nd gear.
