My offside rear box has been crackling at cold and warm temps recently, metal against metal sound. ATS said its the baffles and BMW say its a flap inside that opens and closes that's probably moved. They said it's been seen on 335's but not on a Z4. It could involve a replacement rear assembly from the Cat onwards...
It's so annoying I'm not driving with the roof down at the mo, but hoping it will get rectified soon...

Re: Exhaust Rattle
lol, I really do own the example car here don't I.
I've already had that, it was the flap and they fitted a new cat back exhaust system.
I swear this car is 25% brand new!

Re: Exhaust Rattle
The flap in the rear box is loose and can't be repaired, so having a new exhaust fitted on Monday....
Quite pleased as I didn't think exhausts were covered under warranty.....
