  1. I have 1999 323 seci and so far have found it very reliable. like other people i find the central locking and window drop tempremental on the pasenger door. If I had to complain about the car it would be the tendency to rust on the wings especially the arches. this is a very common issue with the e46 as many other cars have the same rust spots
  2. If the clutch is depressed and you select 1st there is an audable thud this can be heard in 2nd and 3rd if in slow traffic. it is almost as if there is play in the diff or drive shafts that is being taken up when you select gear but have not yet released the clutch. could it possibly be bushes or maybe worn drive shafts the car is a 1999 323ci with 11200 miles. cheers also as a quickie where is the microswithch that drops the windows on a coupe when you open the door located? Jim
  3. looking for a little advice I have a single thud each time i engage a gear. this sounds to be coming from the rear diff and occurs whether the clutch is engaged or not any ideas?
