Recall - transmission

Hello,

Few days ago I got a message from my dealers saloon.

They would like to upgrade my transmission software. They said that somebody had problems that after start up was unable to use transmission until engine shut down and start again..

Btw It never happened to me.

Btw 2 my dealer is retard*d, I am waiting almost 2 month for their answer about repairing my 1 H&K speaker + rattling in drivers door.

Hi BiGFather, sorry to hear about these issues.

Concerning the transmission software, sounds strange they want to see you because one other guy seemed to have a problem. Normally it should be a commonly-identified problem and BMW as a company would recall a complete set of vehicles.

For the HK speaker, as well as for the first issue, that definitely sounds shabby treatment and I would be a total nuisance and call them every day until you get an appointment.

Best of luck and please tell us when you get some news!

Numerous times I've had the issue with Transmision. Basically, when I put the car in reverse, it goes into Neutral by itself. I've made a video and send it to BMW Genuis, haven't heard back yet. Hopefully, this update will resolve that issue as well.
