Hello,

I was just seeing if anyone knew what the issue could be with the gearbox? When it is in park or neutral it’s making a rattling / knocking sound, but doesn’t do it while in drive or reverse.
Bmw 635D 2008.
Thanks!

Morning Chloe

Welcome to the Forum

First are you sure it is the Gearbox not something loose like a heat shield if you can't get underneath to check then you will need the help of someone who can. 

If there is nothing loose rattling then it could be something to do with the Torque converter as the gearbox is not turning in neutral or park. 

Hope this helps

Dave

      ZF8HP service

      Good morning all, So, having had my car for a little over 6 months I decided to give the transmission an overdue service. Parts obtained from Autodoc for £205 for ZF service kit, a fill plug & mechatronic sleeve (Just in case) Job wasn't that bad to do. I even found the source of an intermittant rattle from un undershield. Once done I cleared the adaptions & drove up the road, instantly the shifts were noticeably smoother, not that they were too bad before, just slightly less refined. ZF recommend it to be done at 60K I believe, my car has covered 79K miles. I might do just a fluid flush at 100K miles, we'll see...

      2008 530d e61 M sport manual gearbox

      Morning Andrew This is a new one for me as well. I can onlt think something under the gearstick is either not plugged back in or loose Dave

      2008 530d e61 M sport manual gearbox

      I have recently had a new clutch fitted and notice that it has stopped displaying on the dash which gear I'm in, or should I say when I should be changing up or down the gearbox. It doesn't bother me greatly but it was working prior to having the new clutch fitted. I have searched the handbook but so far I can't find any reference to this. Can anybody throw any light on this? regards Paneuro.

      Burst tyre and alloy damage

      It certainly made a bang, it was no more than 30mph and was over so quickly hard to know exactly what happened. I think the front nearside went up and straight over the kerb then I corrected steering and and the back may have hit the kerb obliquely? It was also on a busy road so I had to get car clear as carefully as I could so couldn't stop. I'm so gutted about it and just hope there are no other problems but it is being fixed by BMW dealer so they should be doing it right.

      Burst tyre and alloy damage

      Hi David As it was a rear wheel/tyre then it could well be a drive shaft It must have been a heck of a whack to do all that damage be like a new car when it comes back Dave
