Light Cracking noise from shifter

[Eric (Plug Guy)]

First I thought it was coming from the shifter head. Barely noticeable but from 2nd to 3rd sounds like if it was made of wood, it would be cracking under the leather boot. Otherwise fine, and messing with the shifter head itself produces no noise.

Just wondering if shift points need some lube. Weird.

Anyone hear this?

'04 C4S, B&M, leather/alum shifter head.

Looks like a dealership visit. Sounds like the car is under warranty, call around to make sure you can get a loaner.

Not too worried. Will get it in soon for a one-year service, just wondering why all of a sudden started hearing this noise.

Eric,

Just wondering, but what do you mean by 1 year service? I have the same car ('04 C4S cab), and I had my oil changed last month (9000 mi), but I would think the first service is due at 15,000. Unless you have that many miles already....

I typically have a one-year service, oil change, go through the car, check it over, etc. Not a big one, just mostly peace of mind. Might also have the tranny oil changed. 7k miles now.
