: 1. The stereo volume goes up and down. At first, I thought a speaker was kicking in or out. Then, I read somewhere about speed sensitive stereo. Is this true? Does the stereo adjust volume by speed? Not sure I like this.

: 2. Rattles in glove box.

: Other than that, pretty solid new car. And, of course, and absolute blast to drive. I'll have this one for a long, long time.

: : I've had my 2000 Z3 Coupe (topaz blue / black) since February, and I recently took it to the dealer to fix some minor stuff. Despite my service advisor's claims to the contrary, nothing actually changed. My problems are:

: : - passenger door has an intermittent buzz (if somebody sitting there presses on the door, the buzz stops)

: : - rear hatch occasionally clicks, as if it weren't completely tight

: : So, I'm thinking I need to go back and try again. Has anybody else experienced problems with minor stuff like this? Also, I've had one other really odd problem. My gear shift knob keeps coming off. There really isn't a whole lot holding BMW shift knobs on in the first place, but if you're trying to shift from first to second in a big hurry, you're going to be pulling hard enough to end up with a shift knob in your hand. This first happened to me about a week ago and it's happened several times since then. I've pushed the knob back on again, but to no avail. Could the knob be defective?
