Re: My F30 issues

Bro ob3lix, thks for the reply. Sianz on the knocking sound. Cannot imagine they may need to tia open the panel to troubleshoot. Unless I switch off. Really qc issue. Going to code it off today. I dont have issues with air con. Except kinda loud when blower turn up.

Hi anyone has this single knock sound after the auto start stop resumes after engine cuts off?. The noise is at the front panel nearer to the passenger side. This sound will not happen when the auto start stop function is switched off. Am driving a 316i.
Do you have a similar sound if you stop the engine and restart it manually?

Kinda weird.. Coz I'll be addressing u as bro limpeh.. Haha

Nope. After off and restart, dont get to hear it. Very obvious when the ASS kicks in. The knock will surface when engine gets restarted the moment brake is released.
 
Re: My F30 issues

Try releasing your brakes momentarily and engage your brakes again to allow the engine to restart. Wait a few seconds then release your brakes again before slowly and gently press on the gas paddle. At which stage will the knocking sound be heard?

Hi confirmed. As long as ASS kicked in and engine restart, even by itself when battery cannot support with brake still stepped onto ,the 'tok' sound will be heard. Likewise, if let go of brake when traffic turns green, engine restart. The 'tok' sound would be heard but this time brake already releases and vehicle moving.

Sounds like a different problem than I thought. Mine was due to some front brake pad and disc interaction as the slight knocking sound can only be felt through my steering wheel when I fully released the brakes and the car started to move off. Problem went away after a while.

Thks bro for trying to figure out if mine matches your encounter.
 
Re: My F30 issues

Any guys having issue with staining on their leather seats? Mine is at both front & rear right passenger seat. Will upload pictures tomorrow.
 
Re: My F30 issues

Drove 320 very quiet and all's well. Drive 335 plenty noise - suspension since new... now just enjoying the power of the car and drive ignoring all noises with good music and enjoy the drive.

By the way, my ride is a used ride & gotten car dealer to check with previous owner. Reply was only plain water & I had also complaint to PML as the quality of leather. But my claim to them wasn't unsuccessful & SA told me to write in for further investigation. So I would like to gather a list off people having this same issue as me & hopefully get a replacement or something. If not, anyone can recommend any leather specialist would be very much appreciated. Below are the pictures.

Re: My F30 issues

Nope. Dont have this issue as mine is dark colour. However I notice the rubber gasket for the remote key has disintegrated. I tried to figure out how to replace the battery. When opened up. The rubber gasket turns flaky. Only for one remote. Bringing it to pml to ask for replacement. Car registered in jun 15.

Re: My F30 issues

No ideal what previous owner did in the car causes this stain. Is quite bordering when I look at it. This car is almost perfect except this. Knn...
