hey, on my 98 318ti, i have problems shifting into 2nd gear. once i release my clutch, it will grind and pop out of 2nd gear. it happened so fast, but i am pretty sure that it grinds even when your clutch is engaged and you are trying to put it into 2nd gear. its hard to tell, it seems to only have done it because i was stuck in traffic more the last 2 weeks. any ideas? its also only 2nd so far.

Sounds like you have a problem with your transmission, second gear is not engaging properly. Drain the fluid and check if there is metal, a sign of internal damage.
