I never knew how ‘tinny’ the floor was in the 3, until I sat in the back seats & tapped my feet on the floor. Wow! Try it for yourselves. Pretty average for the price of the car.
Related, over the past 3 months the car underbody has been making a loud popping sound while driving, like the sound of a crushed tin can expanding in the sun
Then my partner heard it the other day several times over 15 minutes when the car was stationary with the heater running, which made me start to think it was to do with metal expansion.
Yesterday while supercharging it popped 6 times in a couple of minutes
Any thoughts? Is this normal? Is this an indication of a more serious issue? Is this due to poor underbody/floor manufacturing? Did they forget to put in sound deadening?
