whilst driving my 1995 m reg bmw convertable for the first 15 mins its fine, then a knocking noise appears and gets louder and more often! its just been through an MOT and thought they would of found the problem which i told them about but they didn't!!
could be the vanos making that crappy noise (which is safe and normal) or u may have a serious problem...cheapest thing to do is try a different oil/higher octane gas and see what happens, if it persists take it back in

The top will not go up or down. It worked for awhile, but yesterday when I was trying to lowere the top the electrical motor quit. There appears to be two wires running into the fuse box under the hood for this purpose. I do not have a tech manual covering the electrical system so I don't know if these wires are factory or something that was added. I just purchased this vehicle a few days ago from a private owner.
