Hello all, Bought a 2011 320D ED couple months ago. When I bought it, the gear stick was shakey (more than usual) which is a sign of a bad dual mass flywheel. It was driving okay till yesterday. After doing a harder acceleration in first gear to join the roundabout, the car now sometimes is unable to shift from First To Second while driving and it takes a considerable amount of force. Reverse is also a little harder to engage. Going from Third To Second is also hard sometimes. I also had issues putting it in first from stand still just once today. The gearstick shake is worse than the first time I bought the car. I've tried putting the car in Third gear and I can get my speed up a little bit on biting point alone, it will drive a couple seconds before stalling. Also when I depress clutch, the car vibrates more and can hear a weird louder knocking sound consistent with the engine sound. Does this sound like the flywheel and clutch need replacing? I've checked the brake fluid reservoir and it is maxed out. I will be doing my first clutch / flywheel change myself, on road side with 4 axle stands, and a lot of Halfords socket sets is there any specific tools to make this job easier? I do work on cars, but never had such big issue before. Also how much easier would it be to also replace timing while there?
