Hey guys, I have this really annoying "krrrrrrr" sound coming from the engine when I start the car, and when i press the throttle. I was told that it's the Vanos. I looked at this thread http://www.bmwclubuae.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1687
and they talked about Drvanos. I checked out the website and they also have the option of buying the kit. Do you guys think it would be better if I shipped the Vanos over to the states, or bought the kit and got it fixed here? Also, I'm not really sure if it IS even the Vanos. The sound doesnt really continue, after the initial sounding. But whenever i press the throttle i hear it and it's really annoying.
One more question, for you manual drivers, do you sometimes have a problem shifting into a specific gear, or have the gear pop out at times? It doesn't happen to me much but it does sometimes. Also sometimes I don't press the clutch hard enough and I hear this bone crunching grinding sound that absolutely makes me cringe as i feel that the gear teeth are breaking! It's happened to me a few times while I'm rushing during gear change. Does this damage the gear teeth over time?
Thanks guys.
