gas pedal click noise
So this isn't really a 1er specific problem, but hopefully there's a 1er specific solution...
So it seems in my experience that due to BMW's move to DBW, the electronic gas pedal makes a loud click when you're on the throttle even partway, and let off complete with no foot pressure on it. It seems that the noise is from the pedal letting off completely and hitting it's travel stop or something. I'm wondering if any of you guys have figured out a way to dampen or mute this irritating noise? Perhaps a judicious application of foam tape somewhere? It certainly makes double de-clutching a noisy and annoying affair... |

If you guys don't know what I'm talking about, go step on your pedal (any degree of pedal works) then abruptly jump off the gas. You'll hear the pedal click or hit something plasticky when it stops traveling back to zero position. Very un-BMW if you ask me...

My clutch pedal does exactly this, and it took four visits to the dealer to solve the issue. First two visits, they replaced the small oil cylinder sitting behind the pedal, with no resolve. They now have ordered a new pedal mechanism and cylinder, abd will be replacing both.
The way most the dealerhips deal with obscure issues is a pain. They first diagnose, then realize they dont have the part in stock, so they look around other local dealershipsfor the part, and finally need to order the part from head office, and book another appointment with you to come back for the repair. Issues rarely get resolved the first time around.

Finally got my "sticky" clutch pedal fixed. Dealership reaplced both the master cylinder and entire clutch pedal assembly. Clutch pedal is back to smooth and gradual engagement.
