I heard a very high pitch noise that I think was coming from my gearbox earlier this week when I was sitting at a stoplight and I was putting the car from neutral into first. It kind of sounded like fingernails on a chalkboard. It didn't affect the car going into gear but it still wasn't right. Could this be from not having the clutch fully depressed when moving the gear lever? Something else? I've driven m/t BMW's for over 30 years and never heard anything quite like it. FWIW, I use RP Synchromax and changed the oil about 4 months ago.
