Thanks alot for letting us know ManiacGT! It sounds like we have the same noise, whether its coming from that DCT or not...

And good idea Jannisa, I will have BMW check my DCT for any new leaks asap. Just to make sure. I also did a search as you recommended. I can see I am not the only one who had that plastic part replaced among the getrag DCT owners. It seems that in the beginning they would replace the whole DCT, but now they just repair it when/if leaks occur.

So no small, near inaudible, clicks just before each gear change anyone? Again only when the car is fully warmed up?
