I drive my 318is daily, and its been brilliant so far.

I have a clutch bearing noise going on which I have been meaning to sort for some time now, but recently I have noticed a very slight and quiet knocking noise coming from my gearbox, (I can hear it through the gearstick hole).
It doesn't seem to be all the time though, only once i've gone over a really bumpy part of a road or when my music is turned down quite low winkeye . But it does also make this rattling just on idle but again I don't always notice it.

Any ideas or experience?

Thanks
