Clicking throttle pedal

My gas pedal has started making a loud clicking sound when first depressing or releasing. Anyone else?

whats going on with all of these "clicking sound" "rattling sound" noises in general.... my e46 m3 doesn't even have these noises and its 10 years old. I have an M4 on order and ive read wayyyy too many horror stories already

Don't think so. Car seems better screwed together than my E46 or E92M3s. Clicking was short lived.

You seem to forget little issues like the main bearings and coils in the E46, TBAs in the E92, etc. While BMW does a good job overall, cars are so complex these days and there are so many suppliers involved that issues will occur with the best.

Clicking gas pedal

with very light pressure my gas pedal makes a click noise when just initially touching the pedal (without depressing it). It also makes the same click when lifting my foot of the pedal.. Its subtle but quite annoying.

Did u get it fixed?

thx,

Could it be the drive by wire activating?

Went away on it's own after a short time and hasn't returned.
