Steptronic Transmission Problems... Help?
Hey Everyone -
I have a '06 330i automatic. I was driving on the interstate and like usual, I shifted to the Sports Transmission and down shifted. I realized there was no immediate acceleration. I looked down to see that the light on the gear shifter to indicate I had put the gear in Sports/Dynamic mode was not turned on. My dashboard info LED didn't indicate the change over either. Has anyone heard of this before? Help Last edited by bmdub; 10-07-2007 at 07:48 PM.. |

the sports transmission is still not functional.
I am going to the dealer tomorrow, but just wanted to see it there is a history of this happening. Thanks. |

I've shifted into neutral before, not too good for the car I suspect. But however, even when I switch the gear into sports/dynamic shifter now, when I'm parked, it doesn shift over from the automatic mode. I went to the dealer today, the serv. mgr said she'd never heard of this before, so I had an appointment schedule for the 17th. Will keep you all posted.
Until then does anyone know what possibly is wrong with my transmission? Or maybe something mechanical broke in the shifter, so it doesn't sense that I'm in DS or sports shifter mode? |

Yes once when I was stopped and moved it from D to DS I hit the gas and the car wasnt moving.. I looked at the LCD display and it showed nothing I hit it back to D then put it in N and it showed N then I put it in D and all was good.
