hass0250 Posted December 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 Found a bmw 330cd 06 plate mileage 125k But the problems are as follows quoted by the seller "when the clutch is half pressed it makes a rattling when fully pressed it goes away, and when driving along changing gear it doesn't rattle, the car drives perfect clutch is fine gets every gear no problem with no noises I have been told thrust bearing. Recent a Few times the traction control light has came on, couples times a week not sure why when lights out traction control is fine stops the car spinning back wheels no problem, I when lights on traction control is off" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hass0250 Posted December 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 Is this going to cost alot to repair? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melv1958 Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 (edited) The rattle sounds like flywheel and the traction light coming on every so often wil be a sensor, normally DSC sensor, so while the flywheel needs replacing its common sense to change the clutch aswel while it's all off. oe clutch and flywheel fitted I'd say approx £900 DSC sensor £100 ish it won't be the thrust bearing as that doesn't rattle when the clutch is half way in that will still make a noise when the clutch is fully out. either or it's still going to cost a fair bit of money but any manual you buy could have this problem.

rasa Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 (edited) deffo sounds like dmf,but i would suggest more like £700 for clutch,dmf kit fitted,depends on wheer you live though,£450 in parts and £200-£250 labour,my two indis who i go to charge £25-£30 per hour Edited December 21, 2015 by rasa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig_09 Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 I would say 100% the flywheel.. I recently had mine replaced for the reason above. Price the clutch kit and flywheel up on Eurocarparts. I paid around £350 in LUKparts and £150 labour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rasa Posted December 22, 2015 Report Share Posted December 22, 2015 (edited) that sounds cheap for luk clutch,last time i looked it was over £300 for the dmf.and £130 or more for clutch kit,although this was at buypartsbuy.yep its nearer £500 for the whole kit at ecp,sure its cheaper at buypartsbuy,just checked Edited December 22, 2015 by rasa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig_09 Posted December 22, 2015 Report Share Posted December 22, 2015 Sorry I should of said for my 320cd I paid£350 and checked today it's £359.50. 330cd - £415.13 on Eurocarparts using discount code xmas. I paid £150 labour at my local BMW Specislist for fitting but factor in around 5 hours at whatever rate is in your area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hass0250 Posted February 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 Only issue is that when booting it in high gears rear rumble you have to drop it a gear and it goes away, seller said could be to the 240bhp remap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hass0250 Posted February 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 (edited) its a manual 330cd 204bhp stock - 240bhp remapped is it going to cost a lot to repair? Edited February 8, 2016 by hass0250 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melv1958 Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 (edited) It won't be because of the remap lol that's bull talk, it will more than likely be the diff and if so yes then yes very expensive diff,propshaft, propshaft bearing,DMF but that won't rumble from the rear Edited February 8, 2016 by Damo88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hass0250 Posted February 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 so it's defo the diff roughly what the cheapest i can get the parts and labour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melv1958 Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 I would say so yes it's the only thing that rumbles along with propshaft but if the propshaft rumbled it would do it all the time, you can't do it cheap, I believe it's in excess of £750 + for the diff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hass0250 Posted February 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 apart from that car is in very nice condition, will post pic tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott-o Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 Probably just the noise it makes when you're over loading it, i've never put my foot flat down below 2-2.5k rpm in any gear, its not good for any of the drive line. Glad you found one, it took me ages to find mine too, gave up on heated seats and HK for a 54k mile example, although its now got 88k on it! Keep getting tempted by the e90 335d's but really cant be chewed to sell mine at all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hass0250 Posted February 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 Yeah, thanks for the postive feedback been looking for around 7-8 months now this one was probs the best spec just has that issue, then again not easy to find a 11year old car that has no issues whats so ever.
