: My 635 has been making a sort of grinding sound when i put it into gear. I know there is a common problem with the E24 but I don't think it should sound like that. If you put the right amount of pressure on the gas, the noise stops but if you let off or give it more the noise returns. It almost sounds like the drive shaft is rubbing or scraping something. I would be grateful for any suggestions or comments.

: Thanks

It could be the throw out bearing. Does the noise disappear when the clutch pedal is pushed in? How long since your tranny was rebuilt? good luck
