• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

2015 f3s sm6 gearbox rattling

Hey guys so my 2015 f3s sm6 has a terrible rattle coming from the gear box. This started at 300 miles. Took it to the dealer and they said it was normal? It sounds like someone shaking a glass jar full of ball bearing. Thoughts anyone? Thanks

Check around the front sprocket for metal shavings. They become magnetized and will stick to surrounding metal parts. Also look below the sprocket as they also collect their. How many miles do you have in total? 300 would be really low for this type of failure. I think mine was one of the lower at less than 9k. Most seem to fall between 12k and 17k.
