Question BMW M3 SMG... clonking and bangin´ ???

hello all, been off the scene for a while as now living in Ibiza... working in a garage and got an M3 here for sale... it´s an 02 SMG with the flappy paddle transmission. on hard acceleration particularly with the traction control off she´s got a horrific banging and clonking coming from underneath - sounds like the propshaft or something smashing on the floorpan? is there any common servicable part (mounting etc) that goes on these? she´s got 70,000km on her and likely has been used as hard as she´s designed to be...


know it´s not scooby but know also that for a relatively knowledgable answer here is the quickest place to look

thanks

Owain

found it.... propshaft centre support bearing shot to ṕeces and the flexy coupling at the rear of the transmission ain´t too great either....
