You know how much BMW Dean talks about other youtubers... But I like you more because you have a honest and positive attitude.

thank u mate couse i'm still suffering from that clunk and no one is realizing what's the problem. u saved us money and time

[bigmuvver]

Great fault finding video, sometimes things are not quite as obvious as you imagine, keep up the great info, you are indeed a source of knowledge and great sharing.

[jonowen]

As a USA guy I can’t believe someone would tow with a luxury BMW. Wow. But you fixed it. And fixed it well. Congratulations George!

Holy crap, Your wheel has had a fair dunt, nice video,

[TheTom]

Thank you for this video, do you remember, when was cold outside and car was cold, first started, the cluck was present? Mechanics told me my clunk is from drive shaft, but I don't see logics why when cold the sound is not present.

George the series of DIY vids you've made that lead to this "special moment" have been more entertaining than Fringe (season 5) In analogy - if your car could stand up & was a strapping lad you would have refurbished close to every part below the belt. lol.

Usually this would have been my way - like you eventually finding the illusive after replacing a bunch of unnecessaries.
Thanks again George ( awesome work/car dude | nice rear end too. )

I guess while i'm doing the flex-disk & centre support/bearing & definitely take a closer look at my Dif.

Thanks for sharing, Lex.🇳🇿GETRAG

Have this same clunk George with my e46 an it is wore/tore bushings . Glad you got it sorted

[xanderkhan]

I have this sound but only when i cross 1600-1800RPM. Mostly when throttle is not pushed on, but happens when it is too.

What could it be?

[rorz]

Differential bushings should've been the first thing you replaced when you heard the rear end clunk with gear shifts, the 2x front and 1x rear bushings. This was definitely the culprit.

[DS-fzir]

Same problem, everything looks good but on the start car have clunk from the back
How much you pay to repair it?

Had a clunking noise on my E60 msport from underneath, turned out it was the exhaust hitting the plate under the body because the exhaust flange that connects to the dpf had rotted away and under load was clattering off the plate. Sourced a second hand rear exhaust section (£700+ from BMW) and job done for £80.

while driving does it sound like its coming from underneath between the front seats? i can feel knocking sometimes when i put my hand on the floor just behind the centre console but it also sounds like its coming from the drivers side rear wheel sometimes. ( perhaps i have 2 different problems at the same time) It tends to happen at slower speeds and noticed mostly while not on the throttle, it sometimes judders the entire car but it comes and goes at the moment but is getting worse. I had the propshaft rear and centre bearings replaced 4 months ago and is a completely different noise to what i was having then (which was a violent judder under acceleration).

[DocMackGarage]

Lol "if you have a clunk coming out your rear end" really cracked me up .

[lollygaggin]

Hey man, I have 05 330xi, and I have a rapid clunking from the rear end only when I’m on the accelerator, 2-3rd gear, I’m thinking it’s possibly the CV axles?? Very confused.

[Ram-iwxu]

So what was that? Diff bushes or new diff? Sorry i dont understand everything. Also why you didnt show us how it works after changes you did? :(

[mechanich]

Thx for tutorials mate ! I don't think so it is a differential. Why no video of the process???

[spiritseeker]

I’ve been looking for vids tonight for a clunk well more of a quick thud only when I back up and then break to stop. I don’t see hardly any vids with backing up and hear stuff.. maybe you can help me as to what the thud is?? I have a 07 Honda CR-V With 147, 000 mi. Still purs like a kitten. Love my CRV!! No leaks or any others issues. Help me find the thud… 😭. lol. 😵‍💫😄

[markymark]
