Me too, I thought my car (with 230,000 Km) was needing a new clutch…
Only to park the brand new M2 in the same garage spot and feel the same thing lol
I guess the clutches are good. They’re just heavy cars and heavy flywheels, on all modern BMWs (even from 2011)… so we have to give it some juice before moving them (which feels a little weird and counterintuitive to me, who likes to preserve clutches).

Given that they survive long, if you don’t mind the chatter it’s probably not doing any harm. I still think a lot of revs would do damage… so it’s either chatter or a bit of throttle for me to try to get to the sweet spot. Rewarding when it doesn’t chatter
