Clink when pressing in clutch

Anybody else experiencing this. From first to second there a clunk when I press the clutch and the a little bit form 2nd to third. Just bought the car last week and it was in the shop the day after since it's still under warranty. Dealer said they didn't find anything. Any word on this? Thanks!

Sorry, can't be of more help. I have a '17 M6 and I don't hear the behavior you mention. I do notice an increased constant noise in the cabin when I let up on the clutch, but not enough to raise concern.

I notice that when I first get in the car, usually the very first start of the day, when I push in the clutch to start the car I hear a "click" "clunk" something up under the front of the car

But after that I don't hear it. I also don't hear it if I shut the car off for a few minutes and start it back up, but once it's sat for a couple hours it'll do the same thing on the first clutch press.

Yea it's usually first gear. I have the dealer looking at it. Hopefully it's nothing

If it's quiet enough, and your paying attention, you will hear the clutch engage like if you're sitting in your garage. Are you sure this is not what you are hearing? These dual plate clutches are not exactly quiet...

dealer said there was nothing wrong that they could find. I traded in my 14 for the 16 2ss. My 14 I had didn't jerk as much when I pressed the clutch in in the lower gears, but this one does. not that big a deal. hopefully it's suppose to be that way

Your other one didn't have a dual plate clutch like the new one. It will not be as smooth, but is stronger.

Well after a couple day of driving it I can tell that it's not clunking as much. Shifts are still much smoother than the 14
